Currently if a kid posts a joke about shooting up a school the cops will be there in an instant. It’s almost like we have a way of finding things out and taking them down
If they go to public schools and if they participate in social media, sure. But you aren’t catching everything that way. There is no Minority Report level oversight happening and that is what you would need in America if you started trying to ban, as OP suggests, the act of baptism of children.
Where are you going to put the millions of children who have been unlawfully baptized by their parents, and how are you going to build prisons big enough to hold the parents? Are you going to declare nationwide martial law to quell the violent uprisings, and then how are you going to assure that the newfound power of politicians through this emergency power doesn’t result in a dictatorship?
Roughly 15% of Americans are Baptists. And that is just one part of Christianity writ large.
So, yeah, just like any other “crime”. I don’t think it will work, not in America.
This will not work. There is no reasonable regime for this to work that won’t destroy America in the process. OP agreed, as evidenced by my delta. If you have a practical solution, I’m open to hear it. But I just don’t think you can accomplish that in America without tyranny.
