My mother was very religious. I'm very anti-religious. Part of it is likely in direct response to how religious she was because my anti-religious stance started with hating having to spend an hour in church each week or having to spend time at my Catholic school learning about religion.

She wasn't able to pass on arguably the most important thing to her. And while I was the only one my siblings that rebelled to the point where I refused to go to church anymore while living at home, I don't think any of us ever go to church these days unless it's a funeral or wedding that happens to be at a church.

I just hope my daughter isn't pulled in by their false promises because I'm not aggressively pushing it to the point where she would rebel against it or quietly resent it.
