While I am a non practicing Catholic, my hubby is an aethiest & our kids are... nothing. We only practice present giving & over eating during the "holidays" too, lol.

I too believe in the karma of things, sort of. That's the great thing about the US. For the most part you can practice or not practice religion however you choose.

I started going back to church a few years ago with the kids, and he supports me in it. I just want them to have some sort of spiritual foundation, and our church is a broad mixture of Christians, Jews, and Hindus and a host of other faiths. I absolutely expect them to make up their own minds about religion as they get older, whether it's deciding they're Buddist (as my grandparents were), Christian, Hindu, atheist or whatever.

We have taken the kids to church with us since the day they were born. However, we don't celebrate Easter. I'll give you 3 guesses as to our relgion! ;) Anyway, I think it's important for us to inculcate our religious values into the kids when they are young. As they grow they will have to decide for themselves what path they will choose. That being said, it sounds like you and hubby are doing a fine job of raising your family with good values. And I also agree that there is a lot of religious people who have very ugly souls, which is incredibly sad and somewhat hypocritical if you ask me. In order for religion to work for a person you need to live it in your everyday life and not just on Sunday's in my humble opinion. Glad your family had a good time on Sunday! We are religious.
