[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] When I look at Katherine, the first thing that comes to mind is the French expression : Quel gâchis! , which literally means what a waste . A waste because I can't quite figure out why someone born with the resources she was born with/into couldn't possibly make something out of her life other than this contemporary version of the Stepford wife . But, if she's happy , good for her. Having said the above , I can't help but be happy that I left religion behind since my early adulthood. The congenital hypocrisy that runs through the self-proclaimed religious crowd or, in this case, the self-proclaimed devout catholic is mind boggling . The fact that this so-called Christian hasn't made any attempt to even have a minimally cordial relationship with her Half brother tells you everything you need about these people and their inability to adhere to the basic teachings of their professed faith. I'm only slightly older than her and,unlike her, I'm aware of an unassailable truth about this life : It all comes down to circumstances. Specifically, she could've been the one borne out of an extra marital fling and he born into the marriage . He didn't ask to come into this world under those circumstances. If my father had fathered a child outside of his marriage , I wouldn't hesitate to at least initiate some sort of contact with my sibling,then again I'm not a devout catholic . *eye roll*[/quote] I disagree about your judgment of her in not wanting to know Arnold's son. This idea that she would be obligated to open her arms is a strange one, no one is obligated to have a relationship with anyone really. People are increasingly estranged from their biological parents with whom they have decades of history. Good on you for your belief that you woukd seek out contact. She's not you though. Obviously. Men have been having children and second families since the beginning of time. My maternal grandfather in Italy had a "second family." They were not scorned by any means but they also were not invited to dinner. Your assumption that she must be close with him seems very presumptuous. I would have had no interest either. She has the right to decide what level of involvement she wants. [/quote] You're right she's not me, I'm an atheist . She, on the other hand, is the one presenting herself as devout catholic. Thank you for prooving my point about self-proclaimed religious people. [/quote] NP. That is a really broad brush being used to criticize, what sounds to me, ALL people who practice religion.
