You tell your child exactly what atheists tell their children - that life isn't fair but that it is our duty as human beings to try to remedy that situation.
We do that by being fair ourselves. Fairness does not require that we back down or that we cower away from calling a spade a spade, but rather that we tell the truth as we see it.
My argument against people who claim Obama is a Muslim is not based on being anti-Islam, though I am anti all religion, but rather because it is not true.
I am just as irritated by people who claim his wife is an heiress. In the end it doesn't matter, but it is a lie and those who spread lies need to be confronted.
