Seeing that most of my family are atheists, it was never a problem to 'come out'. My sister is something akin to a pantheist, but we enjoy talking and debating about our different points of view. My nephews (aged 3,2 and 2) probably don't understand the concept yet, but seeing that their grandmother on the parental side is highly religious, and would dearly like to indoctrinate them asap, I'm gonna make sure that I introduce them to reasoning.

Have I missed something? I thought you said you were a christian in thread. Confused Fall

Hehhe, don't mind Frods. He's just pulling your leg Wink

When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
