All I can say about the me here is that personally I refused, against considerable pressure from my family, to indoctrinate my children into something I myself could not accept.
Is it actually “psychological abuse” to indoctrinate children into monotheistic religion? Whether to take it that far is an open question.
My parents, both atheists, sent my brother and me to Sunday School, as they thought it wrong to cut us off from a modality of growing up in America in the early 1960s. I don’t blame them, but again, it’s not something I was willing to replicate with my own children.
And why shouldn’t they?
They feel safe here.
They’re among friends.
Question: What would you guess is the approximate percentage of cars and pick-up trucks that use turn signals small town in an inland town in Santa Barbara County, California? Is there a discrepancy between cars and pick-up trucks?
Answer: Yes, there is a huge discrepancy. Please see: Clean Energy Answers.
Possible reason for the discrepancy:
a) The main purpose of turn signals is to help pedestrians and other drivers to easily and safely navigate around you. I.e., it’s primarily about consideration for the wellbeing of others.
b) Pick-up trucks are seldom driven by professionals in medicine, law, finance, corporate management, and any other position that requires an advanced education.
c) There is a huge inverse correlation between non-college educated people and Trump supporters. I.e., the higher one’s education, the less likely he is to support Trump.
d) Trump himself has essentially zero concern for anyone who cannot make him richer and more powerful. His supporters admire this callous indifference to others.

We’ll soon find out how many American voters believe that the Republicans are the party of defending our Constitution.
Buying this requires that we accept Trump’s consolidation of power, the most blatantly corrupt president in U.S. history. It also necessitates the belief that Democrats are essentially communists.
I’m betting that message will fail.
