[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"I believe in building a relationship with my Creator. That is what my kids will have to do as well." There's the indoctrination part: I "believe" and my kids will "have to."[/quote] Are you being a smart ass? I am genuinely asking this question. "Have to do" as in I cannot build a relationship for them, not as in 'that is what I required of them'. And if you come back with some smart ass response about the improper usage of "have to"...[/quote] With the upfront and repeated "smartass" references, you're not making it easy for me to respond in a measured way, but I'll try. Yes, I thought of it in terms of "what I require of them" -- not a far-out interpretation, I don't think. Even with your other choice, it still has the ring of a mandate or an extremely limited choice, as in -- "they should work hard at it -- just as I have done." And this is all about something you believe -- it's not like the benefits of vegetables over velveeta, for which there is evidence.[/quote]
