[QUOTE="keista, post: 529103, member: 11965"] ((((HUGS)))) Did you ever wonder why there are so many different religions and different churches within these religions? It's because ppl are diverse, and it is my belief that God, or the Universe, or "whatever" intentionally made us that way. I think there are many different paths we can take to get to the same place. in my opinion the "sins of the father" argument can be looked at many ways. If the bible is looked at as a psychological text - an explanation of why things are the way they are, this makes perfect sense. What's one of the first questions we ask newcomers? "Are there any dxes on the family tree?" If the father is bipolar, then the son may be bipolar. If the father has a drinking problem, then the son may very well end up with a drinking problem. If the father is abusive, then the son may become abusive. And of course we can extend this to women as well. in my opinion this is how the bible explains this occurrence. It takes many many factors to break these cycles, and sometimes the cycle gets broken by shear luck, or as some would call it, God's Grace. Other times it takes work, will and determination to break the cycle. Part of that may be prayer. For some it may ONLY be prayer. Bottom line is you must do what [B]your[/B] "mom gut" tells you to do. What it tells you is right to do for you and your family. [/QUOTE]
