And Now A Post On Religion, Well Sort Of

It doesn't seem fitting to be posting about religion in this context the day after saying that my husband thinks I'm the Antichrist. Of course you all knew that was a joke didn't you? Surely you did or else my attempt at being funny really sucks.

Anyway, over at amomsreview.com today I am reviewing the book, Parenting Beyond Belief: On Raising Ethical, Caring Kids Without Religion. You should check it out. This doesn't mean I am against religion but I guess it does kind of single me out as being sort of non-religious at this point(if being non-religious means questioning things,asking WHY, and not attending church).

Parenting our two boys without (organized) religion in this small rural mostly Christian town is not the easiest thing to be doing but we are doing it. In meeting people and other parents, I just secretly hope to myself that religion is not brought up in our casual conversations but more often than not someone asks, "So what church do you go to?" and then the awkwardness ensues. Just because I'm choosing to parent without religion doesn't mean that we can't believe in God or that my boys can't make a choice to believe in God but we don't really want them going to church right now.

Anyway, before this post goes all crazy head on over and read the Parenting Beyond Belief book review and decide for yourself whether you'd like to read it. We are also giving away 2 LTDChix.com funny mom t-shirts. To win, all you have to do is comment over on that post right here.
