i think she is wrong. coz she might be an atheist but she should give the child the opportunity to have access to religion and later on the child may choose where he wants to take it or drop it. But a first give him the chance to learn and to know about it

children need to learn good values, if the parents cnt teach then let the grandparents do it. the father must agree

what could be the reason for her husband being against it

She must agree with the idea of her parents. It would be good for her children to be taught to be God fearing. She may not be a practising her religion now but whether she admits it or not, religion influenced what values she has now too.

stop the husband from interfering in this good business

let the kids decide if they want to be that religious... but remember that being an atheist means that you only think that he doesn't exist... if they don't go to church then that only means that they aren't very religious...

the kids can hardly decide if they are still young. children need guidance when young, taught wrong from right.

yeah they need the guidance but what I meant was make them experience what it means to be a religious Christian or just let them learn about the basics and leave it at that...

Although religion may frighten some people due to the way it talks about the last judgement and that all what we do on earth would be a sort of assessed by the end, it remains the only solution for us to repent and stop doing harm to others as well as ourselves and help us walk back on the good path instead of going astray and, besides leave peacefully with our families, friends and neighbourhood. However, we are given the freedom of choosing whether we want doing good or evil and should realise that we will have to bear the consequences thats all.
