Okay...God: as in Supreme Being, Creator, Someone Higher than Ourselves whether it is Buddha, Mohammed. Jesus, or whoever. The specific religion must be indoctrinated, knowing that there is a Being higher than oneself is not. However, I believe if there is no human contact whatsoever the child would be an animal--neither a believer in God OR an atheist.

Even an atheist has a belief system.

Everyone has a "belief system". Not every belief is tied to theism, and atheism does not define a "belief system" apart from telling you one thing that will not be believed.

I think a capacity for wonder and a desire to have questions answered is natural, which is why religion is so popular (easy answers), but no child is born "knowing" except in science fiction.

Even an atheist has a belief system.

Define belief system please.
