What a fascinating read!! I wonder if once we have children or want to concieve children we start looking deeper into spirituality. I have been reading a book about raising the spiritual child and it's beautiful as children are fundementally spiritual creatures. They are like blank slates and as mothers (or parents) I think we all want whats best for them including establishing some faith in something in them. I have looked at your posts about what you mean to do about telling children about faith. I love the idea of showing them. Lead by example if you like. There is a passage in the old testament of the Bible, where Joshua (a leader of the Children of Isreal) asks the people to decide what way they want to follow, and Joshua says " As for me and my house we will serve the Lord". Faith and our beliefs can be a family affair I think, and we all can learn from each other - child from parent, parent from child. Like the relationship between God and his(spiritual) children. Anyway thats my idea and I think it makes me a better parent, at least heaving the right desires for my children and parent them like I would have and believe my God would parent me.
