Good Grief Thom that isn't what he said at all.  Not even close.

He was saying, (I don't want to put words in his mouth), that for *him* not to 
teach his children what *he* believes with his heart and soul would be 
tantamount to child abuse.  Penn Jillette, a hard core athiest, has acknowledged 
much the same point - if you genuinely believe in your heart that someone is 
going to suffer for all eternity; you know the means to avoid that, but don't 
tell them you are a major asshole.

Wow.  So...um...my sister and her husband are child abusers?  As well as any 
person who is not a Christian?
