With the increase of awareness regarding child abuse in many first-world countries, criticism of religious indoctrination is avoided at all costs which makes it all the more horrendous!
To be more clear, when you go to these extremes you actually become and provide the enemy they need to justify themselves.
This post may be counter productive according to your reasoning, but this is not about telling anyone how to raise their children. Instead, this is about bringing a controversial and seldom discussed subject to the attention of the general population, so that it can be considered. There will never be a “middle ground” if those who are being extreme have no other perspectives to consider but their own.
This is counter productive and the exact extreme foolishness that they use to pretend they’re ‘oppressed’.
George,
Exactly how is fact-based criticism of faith-based indoctrination counterproductive?
In Reason,

Have you seriously considered how telling people they can’t raise their own children as they choose (within the strictures of already fairly controlling laws) sounds? It’s as extreme as anything the right has to say and this is exactly the kind of thing the ‘believers’ use to help convince themselves they’re some kind of oppressed minority.
The extremes on either end of the spectrum have no solutions. Solution and compromise lies in the middle.
Counter productive.
