Expressed his fear that I was going to hell and bringing my toddler with me. Let me know that he was praying for me. Tried to convince me that there was actual scientific proof for the bible.
Oh, and let me know what I thought and felt and he was sure to let me know that I didn't do enough research before jumping to the conclusion.
He was sure to tell me how I felt, what I thought and did these years that lead up to this decision.
He kept accusing me of straw-manning and straw-manned the whole damn time.
He was in an accident when he was young along with 9 other kids, 8 of them died and one of them was left a vegetable, he survived, therefore GOD!
I'm upset and hurt that now that he's worried about my "eternal soul" he wants to try to guilt me and talk to me more. He sent a message to me this morning letting me know that he loves me and that Jesus loves me and that he's praying for me. He never messaged me before, but now that my "eternal soul" is at risk he's gotta let me know he cares.
I'm so done. I feel so stupid for fighting for this relationship with him. I tried for so long to keep communications open with him but I can't get it in return unless I'm disagreeing with him about this horrid fairy tale.
I'm stopping now. If he contacts me fine. but I am not sticking my neck out any more.
who ever lets a belief system between father and child is part of he problem. telling you he believes that and treating you differently because of it are different.
Then of course we would have to see your life style. No, not anything goes. If you are doing your job as a person then fine, he is wrong.
