Guest guest Posted February 19, 2002 Report Share Posted February 19, 2002 I would like for my daughter to learn about Vegetables, but in Buddhism we don't discuss God. In Buddhism, you can choose to believe in a higher being or not, that is not the focus of Buddhism. We do not believe in God, and my 5 yr old can spot Christian-emphasis moral lessons faster than probably most Christian kids could, because we are in the minority-religiously and culturally. She knows that those lessons are meant for Christian kids and not her, so no it's not universal because it is not secular but religious. I would choose a video for her if it was talking about vegetables and I happen to like talking ones too cause it holds my interest, so I know it holds hers. But, I would not choose a video with subtle or blatant religious overtures because it conflicts what she is taught at home, unless it was of my religiious beliefs. But, because it isn't, we aren't buying it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
