I’m secular- what can I offer my kids instead of church?

How about a Quaker meeting?

It seems like she’s looking for some type of structure and I’m sure the church thing sounds fun from the description from the other kids in her class. For a variety of reasons, I’m am no longer religious but want to give my kids some tradition, routines and social network with a strong value and strong community outside of school. We have a good community in our neighborhood, etc but I’m looking for something more. Any ideas?


Why not let her follow her grandparents in their faith?

+1 And it's always passionate anti-Christian hatred, never hatred for Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Taoists, Wicca, etc. It bodes well with the whole anti-Christian narrative in the media. Every 5-6 months we get passionate Christian haters on this forum starting numerous threads against Christians. It's become almost a cliche.


Really ?-- more like NON-Christian


Yeah, but Christians are so accustomed to being in charge that anything non-Christian seems anti-christian.

Plus, the other religions mentioned don't go around sanctimoniously telling people that they are going to burn forever in hell for not believing in their religion.


Some other religions kill you if you are in their territory and don't accept their religious law. Why don't you move there if you find it so oppressive here?
But aside from that, no one is forcing you to listen to what Christians have to say. You can simply do or adhere to those other religions or to none at all.
Stop demonizing Christianity because that's currently in vogue.


Except SCOTUS. Fixed that for you.
