Do you believe all children are naturally born Atheist?

When we are born, we are born without the knowledge of gods, but are taught these things. Any thoughts on this and why?

Not only are children born Atheist, they are born without hatred. Kids tend to get along until told/indoctrinated not to.

Yes they are taught by family, church/temple and religious/Sunday school.

Yes, because babies can't understand the concept of a god let alone language. Even then as the child grows up it develops its beliefs based on its surroundings, which is why a religious environment will make people become religious.

A God does't begin at birth just like life doesn't begin at conception. They both evolve into a final product.

yes I like your answer we find out at the end of our life what our life has been

Yes. Children are born atheists. Why would they come up with that idea on their own? There is nothing in the natural world to make them think there is a God. Of course, technically, a child would not have the brain capacity to even understand it when they are born or babies

Yes. Belief in a god(s) has to be instilled in children.

Yes. I would find this hard to dispute.
