chibwike:

hopefulLandlord:
You mean voice note?

I thought you can attach an audio file to your posts? though I haven't tried it

I'm not sure bout that

hopefulLandlord:
Fair enough

I don't really like typing much words would have given u a long epistle. This is one of the reasons I wish nairaland has a way we could send VN

hopefulLandlord:
If he does, would you also agree with him taking them to Freethinker's meetings?

yes I can it would help the kids decide what they want

segunojo866:
who is the man of the house? Am an atheist and i don't wish to marry crazy religious people

Ok

hopefulLandlord:
The key part of my question is how do you draw the line between advice and force?

if my husband agrees me taking them to church when underage I will but when they have come of age I will advice them then they are left to make a choice themselves

ugoswaggz:
like i said ur a kid, my forth kid may even age
end of discussion

Go and use ur age to collect appointment from Buhari

ugoswaggz:

70

ugoswaggz:
Teenagers!

I might be older than u check my topics to know my age

ibietela2:
How are you doing

I'm kul u

hopefulLandlord:
So you want to be free to enforce your faith in the children both of you have but you won't want him to do the same?

where did I write I would enforce it on them

hopefulLandlord:
How do you draw the line between "advice" and "force"?

does taking them to church with you anytime you're going there an advice or force?

Does your teaching them how to pray and telling them a son of a Jewish carpenter died for their stealing candy an advice or force?

Does buying a bible for them to read and take to school, even reading it with them and explaining the meanings of verses advice or force?


BTW, if you regard any of those as "advice" and not "force" then you should see nothing wrong in


your atheist husband taking your kids to freethinkers meetings

your atheist husband telling the child that prayers are simply wishes and that the time the child is spending on praying to imaginary friends are better spent trying to achieve what he's praying for
Your atheist husband telling the kid that nobody died for his misdemeanors


your atheist husband buying your kids a copy of "god Delusion" by Richard Dawkins and "god is not great" by Christopher Hitchens etc and reading it with the kids while explaining it in a way that the kid would understand better


If you're very sincere with yourself you'll feel while yours Isn't "forcing", that of your husband doing the same thing about his own atheism actually looks like "Forcing", something about the husband doing the same methods you do just doesn't "feel right"

I did not say I won't allow them follow their dad for me to marry an atheist comes with many issues so if he allows them go to church with me fine but all will be cleared before marriage so as to understand ourselves

xendra:

FriendofGod:
You are not being truthful and you know it

I'm serious now I can only advice them I can't force them

Pope22:
Easy! I never said you will date him, I said you would call him sexy slim guy

Ayam not omo ojuoriolari meaning someone that has not seen wealth before. I'm not rich but I'm not moved by wealth

Rip God save our souls

FriendofGod:
What if he doesn't allow you too to enforce your faith and beliefs on the kids

then I won't force it on them they have a right to decide for themselves

stchinedu:
Ok. Fear been catch me.

lolz

stchinedu:
you like them big. Kwantinu

not this big but macho men

Pope22:
If he had succeeded and made the money, you will call him sexy slim guy. Women!!!

FYI I don't date slim guys

Perspectives:
The only way he will allow that is if you are not an extremist.

No I'm not there are certain things I believe and don't believe in especially from the scriptures

Odkosh:
As if you won't Bleep him if he had succeeded in doing it n come to you with car.

now answer this question the mention u giving me is it sensible

mrphysics:
Lol, they do that alot

As in ehn they will even ask u question ur senior pastor cannot answer

mrphysics:
I understand you.
I don't know if you have had a first hand dealing with them.

Most of them if not all of them will always want to ridicule your religion

I've met lots of them and I'm even friends with few they tried to shake my faith one time but now I know how to ignore them
