lunashock I used to be pagan, but I'm nothing anymore. I'm married to a Catholic (although he attends chruch like once a year and very openminded) but I don't want Logan to learn jsut one thing. MY plan is to give him the basics of all religions and to be educated. I'm just not into practicing anything or having to buy stuff anymore, I'm weird! blaugh That's not weird.

I know this is a year old post but because I am new I thought I would answer it anyway. I am pagan. I don't know what my kids consider themselfs and I think it might be a bit early to ask. although I have to admit I am curious as to what they would reply. My hubby is athiest. This year is the first that we have not celebrated Yule. I was out of town and my hubby was babysitting our southern baptist neices and nephew. I missed it. We do a version of christmas....we celebrate Santa Clause! (And yes my kids still beleave, they still clap for Neverland too!) We track Santa around the world with Norad, so we know when it is time to go to bed, and give gifts to eachother. But this holliday just wasn't the same with out the Yule log and rushing through the house turning on all the lights. I Hope that next year they won't think they are too big to partiapate with me. sad

Let's see. I'm a Celtic Witch, my hubby's a Pagan Goth. His family is Roman Catholic, and mine are Mormon. Needless to say, my girls already get a lot of diversity where religion is conserned. As much as I think they need to make their own choices, I do steer them more towards our beliefs then their grandparents. It's natural to want your kids to have a belief structure like yours, it's one of the ways you teach them right from wrong and where they'll get their own moral code. When they get older, they'll be more free to choose how they wish to worship. But I'm not sitting in church with them now to "make sure they learn what church is about."

I'm pagan-ish...not sure exactly what, but I do have and follow some of the "traditional" pagan beliefs.

we are pagan universalists: we celebrate all of the holy days, pagan, buddist, shinto, christian, jewish, muslim, african, indian(native and asian), you name it we celebrate it. maybe not as deeply as most (not going to temples, etc.) but we will acknowledge the holy day by lighting candles, feasting, what ever is appropriate for the festival.

My DH and I are pagan (wiccan) and the problems I am facing is the fact that my mom likes to give me flack about wanting to put the kids in the public schools instead of in the Christian Academy here in town. She is even offering to pay for it, but I want them to have the experience of a school where there is more then 5 kids in a grade.. sad She is blaming it on my religion. We are also having issues over the fact that my Exs family are Christians and are teaching my 2yr old their religion (which is fine) but now he says things to me about why don't I do it? I know I influence his decisions a lot so I try to downplay my religion because I want it to be his choice...*Sigh*
