[quote] [b]jade said:[/b] I do believe my children will be life long Catholics as they already are teaching religion in their churchs..and in the footsteps of their savior who starting evangelizing when he was only 12..This is real church. [/quote] So by implication, they are still living in your household and are under your protection and/or control. If their faith holds beyond moving out of the home and growing into their own lives, more power to them. My mother probably thought the same way you do, which is why I and two of my brothers went to a Catholic grade school and our youngest brother only went through 6th grade. I was the only one that chose to go to a Catholic high school, but even by the time I was getting ready to goto college I had begun questioning my faith. One thing that I never realized was of value until I moved away from home for the first time to goto college was the morals that I was taught as part of the faith. However, I could keep those morals without the faith, and I've done so. I'm sure my mom isn't too ecstatic that none of her children are practicing anything (afaik, my older brother might be Lutheran if he's anything), but I've fallen away from Catholicism completely. On the odd occasion where I do attend chruch for whatever reason, it's not because I truly believe in the rituals, but because they have a lingering meaning to me based on childhood memories. Do I believe in a creator? I believe that there is a intelligence that is behind "all this" but to call it God, Jesus, YHWH, Buddha or any other name that the prevalent religions use is not what I think. I'd describe myself as a creative evolutionist, not that it matters. And I have no idea why I'm rambling tonight. I even updated my blog twice in one day. What's wrong with me?!?! :confused: _____________________ [sigrotate][img]http://coeurdefeu.com/sigs/asylum_sig04a.gif[/img]|[img]http://coeurdefeu.com/sigs/asylum_sig03b.gif[/img][/sigrotate] [url=http://coeurdefeu.com]coeur de feu[/url] :: [url=http://www.grimwell.com]Grimwell Online[/url] Qui sème le vent récolte la tempête!
