So, Kim, what are you "seeking"? (you're label is seeker)
Your posts I just looked at quickly on the summary page and here
don't look like you're seeking anything.... I hope I'm wrong... see the post quote after this one...
All humans can be divided into two categories:
1) Those who hold the belief that a god exists (theist)
2) Those who don't fall into category #1 (atheist)
Since newborn babies wouldn't even be aware of the concept of a god, they don't hold a belief that a god exists. Therefore they fall into category #2 and are atheists.

They also poop their diapers. They also don't speak intelligibly, they have no skills whatsoever, they need to be taught everything - how to love, how to give, how to wait, how to work.
While babies are wonderful bundles of joy, what is more wonderful is their growth into functioning adults.
They learn many good things on that journey, so much the better when they have two good parents to teach them. One of these many good things they need to learn is faith in God.[/QUOTE

Seeking God is required for life. It is hard to tell if learning this early in life instead of later in life is good, better, best, or worst...... (when so many fall away, wondering if they would have been better learning later in life so they would not fall away, given the option, as it looks sometimes/ often/ they become so dis-illusioned in and by the evil in the world , the longer they get worn down, without maintaining their faith learned as a child, without good strong true teaching daily and fellowship, without LIGHT to walk in but DARKNESS instead ..... .... ... (the world is full of darkness) ..... darkness can wear out the saints, and many fall away ..... even if they "stay" 'in church' , if they are not Ekklesia (Church), Living Stones Set Together in Christ Jesus .... .... just religion instead of dunamis , "seeking the Kingdom of God Daily" always, in His Grace ...
