We are all obligated to accept prepackaged beliefs to a lesser or greater degree by the society to which we belong - including the smaller groups constituting it, once a member of a such social unit. While many of those beliefs are necessary elements in the form of temporary taboos and mythological totems in order to create and re-enforce the membrane of cohesion essential to a well functioning societal constitution and continuity, many among them however are permanently prejudicial to the sane operation of an ethical society generally and the ethical individuals constituting it particularly. That is why: It is our duty as sane and ethical individuals to question all unproven claims or lies; challenge all mythologies imposed upon us; and most certainly prevent the State or Church from indoctrinating our children (our most precious possession) - whatever forms these undertakings take. All claims from anyone or any organization must be proven whether a government, a religion, a professional and so on.
