Petition Ban teaching children under 16 religion

Leaders of religious and faith based groups raise money from supporters on an unproven pretext. In any sphere of life this amounts to fraud.

More details

No faith based teaching should be allowed to be given to children under the age of 16. The concept of a external superior force or being is so incredible that children need early indoctrination for the idea to take hold. It is unlikely that given free will an individual would arrive at the idea that our actions our guided by an unearthly force.
