Is it safe to assume that my children will be less socially prepared because I am not planning to take them to church?
I went to church for years and years, and I didn't gain any social capital (save for one good friend) because people treated me just as poorly at church as they did in school or anywhere else. (If the child is considered different in one setting, he/she is likely to be considered different everywhere, it seems.)
