“Draw a circle around the one God loves the most”

Some type of Christian school book.

The choices, ordered like a podium are:

  • bottom: plants
  • animals
  • baby - not baptized
  • top: baptized baby

This kind of indoctrination shows https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_chain_of_being with some religious “zoom-in” on the human baby and religious identity.

Traditionalism for the world religions includes this long tradition of “natural hierarchy”. It’s a core hierarchy as a set, and then each religion can extend it a bit with their own flavor of hierarchy; more layers. The core of human supremacism remains, always.

    Yes, well plants are real and God is not. That’s why I take all my religious instruction from plants.
