Dear “Religious Right”: Church Attendance Doesn’t Make You a Christian or Better Than Anyone Else
I just came across this, it highlights so much of what is wrong with our country;
Like the couple I met, married with 2 kids, that wouldn’t let their cousin live with them unless she went to church 3 nights a week. Okay, fine, whatever. They were highly involved in their church and I guess if you’re going to live under their roof it’s reasonable to abide by their rules.
But wait, come to find out both the husband and wife were both having affairs. Not only that, their children were severely obese, with doctors saying their children were most likely headed toward diabetes at a very young age if their eating habits weren’t changed. But even with that news the cousin told me the parents didn’t care and continued to let the kids eat whatever they wanted.
Then, after finally getting a divorce, the father moved 600 miles away (and a year later has yet to come visit his kids) and the mother left the kids with a babysitter almost every night to go to her new boyfriend’s house.
Oh, and on a side note, the little girl who I believe is 10 or 11 has already tried to commit suicide. According to the cousin (who is a friend of mine) the mother stayed around for 2 days before going back to her routine of working, coming home, changing clothes and going to her boyfriend’s house.
