Hi all. This is my first time posting here, and was hoping I could get some advice, encouragement or guidance.
I am an atheist. I have not really "come out" yet due to my highly religious family
My husband, of course knows, but he respectfully disagrees
He is a Christian. A southern Baptist to be exact. Our marriage is wonderfully. Our first son is almost a year, but I am Dreading his aging because I know this means the subject of relious studies is slowly approaching. I am a scientific, logical thinker and although I love my husband, I think he has been brainwashed by religion
I think religion spawns judgment, hatred and fear. Qualities I do not wish upon my children. How do j teach this to my child without looking like I am undermining my husband and our family as people. I feel like if I teach him to approach things from a logical, scientific perspective I will be hurting my husband. I am so conflicted, but I feel my views are equally important.
Thanks in advance for your support.
