<<For much of the same reasons you didn't want your children out in the "world", because it took away some of their innocense, so you sheltered them, I do not want to raise my child in a religion (especially the more conservative ones), because I think she may eventually lose that childlike joy with living.>>
- So then your okay with what we christians refer as the "world"? Being- drugs, fornication, under age drinking, and other things of those WORLDY natures. Being in the church doesnt cut you off from the joys of life- but it lets you keep from being fooled into thinking that certain things that are considerd "fun" are acceptable.
The church gives people a clear view and grasp on good and evil. The world mixes the two together and has a jumbled conception of both.
It is my belief, anyway, that there is far more "joy" to be found in Gods service then in slavery to the world.
