[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 652067, member: 1550"] Ok, ok, ok. Halt. God is not a part of everyone's life and there are many religions too. I don't think it helps an atheist to tell her God will take care of it. And my beliefs are more that our higher power is with us, guiding us, but we make our own decisions. So this is a very diverse site and I feel it is best not to push our beliefs onto others. This woman who is an atheist will not benefit by hearing about God and atheists are as welcome here as other people. And so are people like me who have many New Age and Buddhist beliefs and believe in many lives and karma. I know some people probably think I'm a heathen because I regularly consult a very good, accurate psychic (shrug). I know I'm a good person and don't need approval, but I don't believe we should tell others what God will do, since we are such a diverse group. I know the statement was meant well, but I respect atheists and do not talk to them about God and I don't think it is respectful to do so. Just as I would never tell a Christian that I've been there and it is not the way. We are all in this together as Warrior Moms and we need support, but not necessarily in the religious sense. I started a thread once asking if most DCs are atheists and got some flak from atheists, which I took to heart. I can see why they felt insulted. I think we need to be mindful that we are such a broadminded group and include everybody's beliefs as equally valid. I think it's best if we stick to common ground...our DCs. Hope this didn't offend anyone. JMO [/QUOTE]
