I so agree....except with your religious constrictions.  In Al-Anon, I have learned to respect all people's paths to spirtuality.

 

One is not better than another.  I love that.

 

It's given me freedom to love everyone, regardless of their religious persuasions.  It's given me an open door to exploring my own spirituality.

 

I appreciate that freedom.

Thanks so much for all of the quotes but agian no help.  When did this turn into a battle of faith or not faith.  i have gone to AA and you know what I learned.  Your family is not to be first no matter what you believe your faith to be and when I was commanded of that I learned that the one thing that would get me through this was my husband.  To tell you the truth not sure why he is still around.  It was not until after that when faith came in.  I live this life every day and everyday I find some feel good method entering into my life but I was still left and am left every time I speak to my father.  I am still thrown away like trash every day but yet people still every opportunity to use someone else's pain and conflict for thier own personal soap box for whatever fight or cause.  It's America that is what we do.  Not real sure why I even shared in the first place.
