boat goggles! You learn something new every day...

I ask bc I went to school in Midland for senior year. What a mind fuck that was religion wise!

I actually had the opposite happen. I was the Christian and my ex (who's pretty cool actually; four years running) was some sort of atheist/igtheist. We had the talk about a year ago and found a lot of common ground. Now, to get her to dump that asshole she's with (who's actually a really nice guy).

I feel for you, TRS. Keep us updated, and I hope it goes well.

Exactly. That is exactly what is going on here. She's never noticed the FSM decal on my Jeep? Lol...My son is going to be just fine. She won't understand his arguments, but he will...and that's all that matters.

Yes.

Your son sounds like a boss.

As long as he's skeptical enough to question things that from the outside are patently stupid, your ex doesn't stand a chance, and you get the added benefit of smugging as a beaming proud dad.

As usual, she has assumed that she is privy to some information that I am not aware of and sent me a text because my son told her "that Jesus story sounds made-up". She gave me a quick news bulletin about Jesus and how he died for our sins. She then had the audacity to suggest that I pickup a bible sometime because it's filled with all sorts of amazing truths if you "know how to read it". She went on to request that I respect her new belief and her desire to impose it on my 6 year old son! Lol, good luck. I hope she's prepared...she has no fucking clue what she's bitten into. She literally couldn't be barking up a worse tree...

Dig in and prepare for a long battle. Hang tough, and good luck.

You mean the bible.

The first two thirds are Judaism for Dummies. the last third is Christianity for Dummies.

I hear Austin is pretty relaxed though?

I echo the others... as long as he has someone who thinks critically in his corner... it just sucks to have to add that into the equation, when things are bad enough. Undecided

I feel for ya.

@OP

Sounds like my ex. You have my sympathy.
