Actually I was raised as nothing as well. Which was good because when I asked my father what the best thing in the world was and he said wisdom that left me alot of room to see if he was right or not. Luckily my father wasn't Maharishi or he would have told mme that the best thing in the world was money, and then I would have fallen from the path and become a thug.

I agree. But they are basically different sides of the same coin, IMO. Why make kids face either?

Fortunately, I faced neither
in my childhood, as I was raised in an atheist/agnostic household,
for which I am immensely grateful.

If so, then your parents were certainly a lot more enlightened, in the real, pragmatic sense, than most others of that time.
