This is the link from your 2nd to last attempt to post a gif via the image option. If you do the same thing, but delete that underlined "https://" in the quote above, then it should work. Just make sure there's not a "https://https://" in there, if so, delete on of the "https://" so that the URL only has one of them.
You're so close, don't give up!
last try

Congrats!

Ha! I got one more ignore for my abortion opinion.
Unpopular opinion: Anyone who has kids or is planning on it should raise them without ANY form of religion, period. Let the kid decide which "religion" and if they even want one in their lives. Just teach morals and goodness without using ANY form of religious guilt and fear tactics. I wonder how the world would turn out after a hundred years of absolutely no religions in the way of progressive thinking and doing things.

I know religious parents who have explained to their kids that they believe in religion x, but that's just because they relate to it most, and its ok to have a different religion, or no religion, and that they choice of religion is both up to the individual person, and can even be changed over the years as that person changes.
Its a very rare thing, but it seems to work I'm not religious and if I ever had a kid, I would tell them pretty much the same thing, and let them decide. It seems pretty messed up to brainwash a kid from birth that they are a member of an arbitrary group that they can't leave and can't question their beliefs/actions, even if that group is "no religion".
Basically, I agree.

IF people could just take the step(s) of not infusing ANY bases of religion whatsoever in the formative years of raising kids that might be the change the world needs. I seriously doubt it would/will EVER happen.

Wherever there is something that we don't know, religion moves in to soothe those that can't handle not knowing things. Since the majority of the universe will never be visited by humans, and we simply can't know what exists outside the universe (if anything does), we are likely stuck with some form of religion forever.

This will never happen. You can see some pretty clear social examples today of atheistic religions and the harm they do. People will worship. People will always worship. You worship a kind god, or you worship cruelty on earth - it doesn’t matter.
Your average agnostic or atheist probably scoffs at the notion that they worship anything, but it’s because they have a narrow understanding of what that word means, usually picturing Catholics at mass acting like they’re in a 3rd grade play with costumes and bowls of water. That’s not all it is. What do you fervently believe? What faith do you have that drives you? Have you any morals at all? They’d say that they do, but would refute the notion that these morals come from a god. But they come from somewhere, don’t they? They didn’t spring up spontaneously from inside you.
Plenty of atheists and agnostics are good people. Plenty of Christians are bad people. But history shows us that worship in the wrong direction, be it worship of the self or worship of an evil, imagined god caused mass death and destruction.
I’ll take the benevolent pantheon we have over dismantling it and hoping a bunch of low IQ people - that’s almost everyone, by the way - somehow manage to think independently and arrive at the correct conclusions.
That won’t happen. Religion is here to stay; it may as well be one of the good ones.

wait ... teach children to think on their own and trust them to make their own choices... Agree!!!! Difficult because we are products of conditioning and do what we know. I feel it is a lot of parents goals to let their children chose who they are.

In east Texas everyone wants kids that look, act, and dress just like them 
It’s weird. A bunch of clones running around. That’s all culture is, by the way - people who want their children to be as much like them as possible. I don’t go in for most of it. I want my kid to be his own person, but it is our job to gently guide them out of barbarism.
Like not pissing on the floor and screaming in Walmart haha

I was raised to think for myself and I am grateful for that. 100% agree that is the way.
Which also means if I get myself into trouble I would have to get myself out lol
