Well you can’t be proper Christians then because Christian’s are friends with people of all faiths 
hopefully your children don’t end up like you

You definitely should. They are probably some of the best and moral people your kids could be around. You should also let your kids decide their own path, religion-wise, just encourage them morally. Definitely research paganism.

As a teacher, a parent, and a religious person… I truly hope this question is a joke
90% of your religion is stolen from paganism so idk why you’re so mad lady.
My parents would take my brother and I to church every Sunday, we were raised Baptist. As we got older my parents would stay home and drop us off. My & my brother’s experiences were not good during this time. We were told by “Grown Ups” our clothes were not good enough, our Tidings to the Offering plate were not big enough and we were looked down on. We would go home and tell our parents we didn’t want to go back, so my mother would find another church. This went on until I was 12 and my brother was 15. One day the when the plate was passed and my $1 and my brother’s $3 were looked upon as not worthy. We came home and staged a uprising. Telling my Mom enough was enough. I was over being told that “If I didn’t go to Church I was a Heathen, that I was nothing if I didn’t dress, talk, act and give tidings to a church who did not practice what they preach” Those upstanding people would then go home and do everything the “Church” said was Un-Christian" My mother called the church and told the pastor that my brother and myself will not be coming back to their church. To tell the Church Bus driver not to come anymore. Well, the following Saturday the Church Bus drove up to our house and a lady got out and knocked on our door. My Mom answered and they lady went on into a speech about how if the Children didn’t attend church that we would be going to Hell and that we were not proper Christians. My mom called me to the door and asked me why didn’t we want to attend their church. "I told the lady that I believed in God, In Christ the Lord, I believe that I should treat people as I wish to be treated, and be the best person I can be. What I didn’t believe was that I had to go to a building, a Church to be told, I don’t dress properly, give enough money to the church, and that I was not a “Proper Christian” Like she told me the week before. She started screaming we were all going to Hell and we were Heathens. My mom started after her and chased her to the bus all the while the lady screaming. After that, I explored all religions, I read, went to my friends Churches or Services and I chose my own path. To this day (I am now 64) I believe that as long as I believe in God, or a higher power if you will, believe in Christ, Be the best person I can be and help my neighbor, then that should be enough. Telling or trying to force any religion or believe on another person is wrong. That person should be able to look around and see what feels right for them selves. Take your children to Church, read or research with them, talk to them. listen to them. You will be surprise to find they will pick the right path.

What on earth are they going to do when they leave the home??? I don’t mean to sound judgmental but you’re foolish to think they’re not going to be exposed to people/ideas of faiths different than their own. How are your kids going to treat people who believe different than they do?

Quick question, if you are so devout you dont want any other religious influence on your children, what do you think the purpose of missionaries is? Missionaries go to other countries and work with the local peoples. Local peoples who likely have a religion in place already. Do you think all missionary work should be stopped because they are another religion youre helping? Its a requirement for young men to give some sort of social service in our church. Either they mission here locally, helping feed clothe and take care of the elderly and sick OR they fly out to a 3rd world country and help. Service times are like 2 years. It is a requirement. The world is very vast love, you must prepare your children to make a difference in Gods name for ALL peoples. Especially those that need us the most.

I can’t help but ask-How would their kids hurt your kids? I don’t quite understand your logic there. You don’t seem to be very Christian like either. I was always under the impression that if your own faith in your religious faith was strong enough then that was good enough. We’ve taught our kids about most religious faiths because of how diverse our world is, they are bound to meet people of every faith and acknowledgement is not acceptance. Honestly, I feel bad for your kids. You are hurting them more than anyone by not educating them. Good luck in this world, with that attitude. Letting your kids play with the Pagan’s kids would be the least damaging thing that you haven’t already bestowed upon them.

I believe that the only way for them to confirm their own faith is to let them experience other religions. Otherwise, you’re just forcing your beliefs on them, not them making the choice to believe. My parents never discouraged us from being friends with non-Christians and I am very glad for that. Excluding people from your life just because they have a different belief system than you is not Christian… it’s selfish on your part and it turns your kids into bullies who will treat them as lesser beings. Let the kids play and be good friends to EVERYONE! Not just like-minded individuals.

You are not a true Christian if you even have to ask a question such as this. As a rule, children don’t go to another child and ask what his/her religious affiliation is. I’m an adult and I don’t. I’m friends with anybody that wants to be. What religion they observe has nothing to do with me. Let me tell you what I know for a fact, if you don’t let your kids socialize with anybody but their own “kind” you’re going to have issues. I know people that made their kids only socialize with religious kids and all those kids ended up with issues when they got into the “real” world. Unless you’re going to live in your own “community” (cult) your children will always encounter people with different religions. I personally like finding out about different religions and compare how,ours differs.

Never restricted a person from learning even if it’s not your values I teach my kids about God but it’s their choice most all religions are similar to be honest
I would suggest taking with their parents, understanding pagan views (I’m assuming nordic - being as all non Abrahamic religions are labelled pagan, it could be Egyptian, nordic, naturist etc etc.)
Maybe then you’ll learn something about humanity before one sect took over from thousands of years of harmony with the world.

You can’t isolate your kids. When I went to school, there was a Jewish boy in my class. That didn’t affect my firm grip on Christianity. Make sure your kids have a firm foundation in Christianity. They will keep it. They may have questions for you, so make sure your foundation is strong. But let them play. Their beliefs probably won’t even come up.

Playing with children who have different religious beliefs than theirs is not going to hurt your children. Jesus socialized with all kinds of people and so should you and your children if you are truly wishing to be and raise Christ like individuals. If your children see or hear something they have questions about regarding the other family, it is your job as a Christian mother to guide your children and answer those questions with love and respect for your neighbors. If you have given your children a good foundation in their faith there is no need to keep them in a bubble.

If you think restricting and controlling them so they only know what YOU want them to believe in, is good parenting your mistaken. I’d rather let my kids play with them, I’m sure they don’t have a judgmental bone in their bodies, unlike you.

Christianity took a LOT of what it has from Pagan tradition, yet you don’t want them to know that?
Your kids are their own people. I know you don’t like hearing that, but they will grow up and choose whatever faith they please. Deal with it. If you didn’t want your kids to be their own person you shouldn’t have had any to begin with. This kind of mindset gets you disowned as soon as your kids are old enough to move out.

Let the kids play and enjoy each other’s company they are kids. As for the parents be kind, do unto others. An apple does not fall far from the tree.
