My best advice to anyone who wants to raise a happy, mentally healthy child is: Keep him or her as far away from a church as you can.

When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad, I feel bad. That's my religion.
-Abraham Lincoln
I had a thousand questions to ask God; but when I met him they all fled and didn't seem to matter.

"Inward Ho!"
Those who are ignorant of the supreme purpose of life will never be able to attain nirvana (liberation) in spite of their observance of the vratas (vows) and niyamas (rules) of religious conduct and practice of shila (celibacy) and tapas (penance).
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.
Religious people fear hell -- Spiritual people have walked through it.
-Frank Warren
"PostSecret: Confessions on Life, Death, and God"
I love you when you bow in your mosque, kneel in your temple, pray in your church. For you and I are sons of one religion, and it is the spirit.
-Khalil Gibran
There are many things which are difficult for any wise man to understand... Like
the rewards that are bestowed by God in heaven on performing good deeds; the
same when done here are condemned by the religious heads, but then who are
they to condemn it?
-Deep Trivedi
We are quite bizarre ourselves, so are our religious heads too. Merely to satiate
our pride we visit them to listen to good things about our religion and they being
clever take undue advantage of it, pander to our ego and continue to prosper.
This blinds us so much that we stop seeing the negativities of our religion and
positive aspects of other religions. You cannot even imagine what a great loss it
is for you.
-Deep Trivedi
You look at it, but it is not to be seen; Its name is Formless. You listen to it, but it is not to be heard; Its name is Soundless. You grasp it, but it is not to be held; Its name is Bodiless. These three elude all scrutiny. And hence they blend and become one.
