Interesting that the topic of religion just came up as I could use some advice...
We baptized my son and we were married in a Christian church. I am not religious but I went along with it because I figured if it makes husband and his family (and some of my family) feel more comfortable then why not?
I just found out that my MIL took my son to sunday school this weekend. I was not consulted at all regarding this. I know husband would be happy because it means that he was able to sleep late on a sunday.
My major issue is that this decision is extremely hypocritical!!!!!!!
I also went to a few divorce care meetings and learned that my beliefs regarding marriage are highly in line with Christian values. But for my MIL and husband to do this, When they were so accepting of divorce is LUDICROUS and I will repeat, HYPOCRITICAL.
Now on the other hand, I just fractured my foot and any help I receive from my MIL is also a relief.
Maybe exposing son to many different religions might be a good idea as well? I don't really know.
I know religious topics can be controversial. I am not opposed to religion and I certainly do not look down upon it, I'm just not religious. I also do not love the pastor of mils church as he is very dogmatic. And most of all I despise husband and mils acceptance of divorce.
