Single parenting and dating again.....

[~Sol]

Another hot topic I forgot to point out is church. I want to be able to raise my D in with a good church, but ex is totally against this. In fact, since ex (and myself included) were raised in a traditional Catholic environment, my ex doesn't believe in prayer and doesn't even attend church altogether. I admit that I too was absent from going to the church I was raised in, but I'm much older and can think for myself, so I am inclined to attend a non-denominational church as I have had bad experiences with other churches. I respect them all, but my preference is learning directly from the Bible and applying those principals to my everyday life. Let's face it, I screwed up being on my own without God in my life, and I did a pretty good job of that! So my reason for going back to church is to get myself and my life straightened out.

I like to say my ex is being highly irrational, given she wants us (me and my D) to attend a Catholic church instead of any other, and she'll be fine with that. Yet she has no grounds to demand this since she herself does not go to church, nor does she believe any of the teachings of the church. Believe me, this is something I need to pray about more, but reality is that ex is being too irrational in this and there is nothing wrong with our D going to a good Christian church where she will learn more about how to become a better person and have God in our lives. My ex doesn't have God in hers, and that's sad.

There, I'm gonna keep it at that before I get myself into trouble!
