Lol, you honestly believe that?  Hatred and intolerance of those different from ourselves is born form being human, not from religion.  Some are able to overcome it, some aren't.  And atheists have just as much chance of hating and not tolerating to those who do believe there is a God, as people of religion do.  This can be seen in the way they lash out at Christians by finding ways to blame them for things they do not control or having heated arguments about how they are stupid for believing in a religion that is just, in atheist's views, fantasy.  Or trying to have Christian customs removed from the public's eye.  In fact, your response and the OP's demonstrate that both of you have a certain level of hatred and intolerance of Christians, blaming them for this incident even when no religion was brought up in the original report.

I think many people on here didn't actually catch the point I made in the OP.

No, I'm sure they saw it, but aren't biased against Christians, so it was ignored or disputed.  And the main reason the religion of the parents wasn't reported was probably because the reporters were so disgusted by the act, they didn't give a shit what religion the parent's were.  You know, the way you should have acted.  Like I said before, it's sad that the impact of this article is dulled by your bias in the OP.
