My wife is somewhat of a Catholic and we are having a child next week(scheduled c-section). I recently found out that she wants to have our kid batptized and it makes me sick to my stomach. I seriously thought it was only to appease the older members of her family but after some inquiries I found out it's what she wants. Now I am really dreading the whole thing and probably will throw up a little in my mouth during the ceremony but it's her kid too. I will take the oaths seriously as I will be 'educating' him about God.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
