Thanks, Becky

Becky randomly stated to me that she was reading the Submissive Wife forum on Ravelry & being nosey I had to poke around. I guess being a UU I don’t quite understand that, but it’s ok. It makes me glad that I have the choice not to be submissive, and it makes me also glad that they have the right to.  It’s not how I would choose to live my life, but I’m thankful I have the right to choose.   I am thankful every day that I don’t have to live a certain way, or think a certain way and be prosicuted for it.

Faith is always a hard subject. My mother always taught me that there were two things that we do not ever talk about with people we don’t know all that well.  Politics and religion.  We all believe diffrent things, even as people of the same faith.  We are all human with vast imaginations, views, thoughts and ideas.  It is hard when there are people who like to tell you how wrong you are, but as long as they are living a good life, doing harm to none then I will gladly let them tell me how wrong I am.  I don’t have to agree with it.  That is the beauty of life, and of our freedoms.

Well put. I had no idea that there was such a forum on Rav…

You’re welcome.

I just found the whole site fascinating as human behavior never ceases to amaze me. The one sad thing I found was that a lot of the women on the site were talking about depression more than knitting.

You’re right, faith is a hard subject because it is a personal subject that shouldn’t be treated lightly. I happen to be an Atheist, so I am particularly grateful for our Freedom of Religion because that also means I can safely have Freedom from Religion.
