I’ve just recently discovered the redheaded skeptic’s blog, and I’m really really happy to have done so. I think here is a blog I can semi-relate to, because I grew up in the birthplace of the Southern Baptist Convention. Consequently, a lot of her story is bringing back so many memories…
E and I don’t talk much about religion, but when we do, I’m often struck by the differences between her Eastern Orthodox upbringing and my conservative Baptist one – and where we are now. So far, we’ve co-existed nicely. She believes and I don’t, and there’s where it’s kind of stopped.
But soon -– very soon – it’s going to become something we have to discuss in earnest, because D is going to be starting kindergarten next year, and with that comes the possibility of scripture classes. And that is something I dread.
