Well he chooses not to believe. That's his obligation.

A lot of kids practice (and I use the term loosely) religion in order to please their peers, when they don't necessarily believe in that. I really don't see the point in this. What is the point to faith if you do not believe in it? And being excluded because of your belief is surely not right? Would the church ban you from services if you did not join in prayer or hymns?
