I think this is good.. but we should not just make him choose which religion he wants but also if he wants one or not.
I disagree. I can't say for the other faith groups but for Catholics, having your children baptized and taught the Catholic faith as soon as possible is a must. Our Catholic faith is more precious than our secular education if we believe that the afterlife is more important than this life, and we never wait for our children to reach a certain age to decide whether he should go to school or not. If the state requires parents to send their children to school so does God require parents to teach their children about him, which is part of the "job description" of religion.
This would lead me to another question that i would like to ask... which part of the bible that states infancy baptism... where in fact Jesus was baptized when he was a older and now you were saying that you follow the Bible? please enlighten me!
