Beliefs, Significant Others and Compromises
#6
RE: Beliefs, Significant Others and Compromises
Sounds like I probably would have. However, I would have let her know that such compromises would not extend to any children we had. My concern wouldn't be so much for us adults, but any children we had. The wedding day is really the wife's day, and would have readily let her have that her way, but I would make sure my partner knew that compromises are mutual, and that I would expect her to respect my wishes not to have what I perceive as bullshit shoveled into their head long before they are even able to think for themselves.
I would more generally advocate that one only leave one entrance into their mind(reason), and keep the rest of it rather closed, as it is one hell of a lot easier to shovel shit in than it is to get it out.

If the evidence and reason for you to believe something isn't really any better than the reason you should believe some rural farmer from Arkansas got anally probed by interstellar visitors, then you probably shouldn't.
