It can be hard to leave the fold unless a person has your kind of strength. You’re a very together, insightful woman, Kate.

I also think that for us to know our beliefs they need to be challenged and questioned. Blind adherence is not indicative of faith. The beliefs that I hold most dear are the ones I've earned, the ones I've defended.

One of the best things my mother ever did for us as children was to take us to all kinds of churches, temples, and praying sites. It certainly was an eye-opener at the tender age of five but well worth it. I agree with you.

People can go every week and not get a darn thing out of it. What you said, has more meaning than some of the sermons I've heard. Like age, beliefs can get better with age.

For good or bad, we learn and grow from everyone who passes through our lives. And, if we're lucky and/or strong, the good outweighs the bad. What you wrote is so true, Sloane.

We learn so much from those who grace our lives (whether for a short or long period). That was truly beautiful, Sloane.
