[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like your world view is actually very similar to that of the Jains. They are vegetarian, generally socially conservative (at least traditional Jains are), and do not believe in "God" the way Christians understand it, though many Jains are deeply spiritual. I agree with other posters that you should educate yourself about religion - there are many different religions that encompass many different world views. I think you should let your children go to temple, or church, or whatever with your husband. It is incredibly limiting that you were raised to be frightened of religious people. How would you feel if religious people were frightened of you and your children? "Fearing" people who are religious IS bigotry. In Europe, children used to be taught to fear the Jews for their supposed misdeeds. Its a problem. At the very least, your children should learn to accept and not fear people of faith. [/quote]
