Right now, I plan on letting my daughter choose. When she gets older, I plan on letting her go to church with her grandparents or god-father (my brother), then she will learn of the Craft from me.

Starhawk. Oh dear. The issue with Starhawk is well...I can't even think of a single word to describe her with.

Dont get all weird on me. I dont like starhawk anymore then you probably do. But I at least read her work instead of jumping on the ban wagon of trash talking her without reading her work. I just couldnt find the right word for it. Witchcraft isnt a religion and im not wiccan. Saying pagan tradition isnt right either because I dont follow a tradition. Goddess tradition just fit.

I'm pretty sure she has read some Starhawk before.

Im not implying she hasnt only that alot of people dont care to find out for themselves anymore. I do like some of her meditations but then again I doubt they originated with her.

First point, yes I have actually read some of her work and I'm not just 'jumping on the bandwagon'. Don't assume that's what everyone does. How could you not be implying that I haven't read her work when you just assumed it in your previous post? Rude.
My next question is, how much have you read other than Starhawk's work?

(Gaia needs a better confused emote than just confused I feel like I'm coming off like a jerk when I use it)

It seemed like you were because of what you had posted. From an outside perspective this is how the conversation looked (at least to me):
You started looking like you support Starhawk's work. iKill came in expressing her dislike. You mentioned that you at least read Starhawk instead of jumping on the bandwagon.

I only mention this to try to be helpful. And part of because I had to take a communications class this semester (3 more days...). I wish I can remember the name of the matrix. Duh. I wasn't called a matrix. It was Johari Window. I'll expand more after class. I gotta get going to that class right now actually cat_sweatdrop

I knew I should have stated "not that you havent" in my post but im working from a phone that hates me and I tried to post that about 3 times and I got pissed off and didnt edit it again...sorry

See, the problem with this is my mother-in-law has adamantly stated if I don't baptize my children she will, and if I don't raise them Christian she will. Everyone around here is on some kind of bible steroids (no offense meant to anyone).
Anyway, my husband is atheist, and really doesn't care, but I want to make sure they have a religious education. I do find pagan holidays to be more fun/meaningful to me, so my children will probably participate. Luckily my church (UU) has members who hold family-friendly solstice (etc) celebrations, and the youth program (equivalent to Sunday school) is the same as the adult service; basically religious education, but every religion instead of just one.
