Ok
I'am a Roman Catholic who went to a Born Again Christian high school. Read that again really slowly. Religion is something I've had my whole life. Its a subject I studied while growing up & I've seen it ruin lives & help people who have used it to rebuild lives.
Not only have I been in the situation described at the beginning of this thread but I've been the one who did the breaking up also. I've had women leave me because of a choose in religion I made in college. I went down the satanic rote for 2 years & it was more like a social sewing circle then anything else. Then it all stopped. I made nice with my parents who are Roman Catholic & everything was great. The problem for me came with the pedophile sex scandals. There was nothing that happened in my local church but it began to make me question everything I had been taught as a kid. About 3 years ago I walked away from the church. I haven't looked back at all. However let me say that I wouldn't get involved with a lady who was of the born again faith. There was an aweful lot of screwed up people in those churches. After high school & other experiances I avoid them like the plague. Anyhow my 2 cents...

I worship at the church of Dawn Olivia. It's my personal beliefs, made by my mind, which encompasses my universe.
It's pretty sweet. I don't have to tithe.

lmfao at impartial to lamb steak. :p Actually I do agree with you, it is unnecessary. (I love how you can just edit posts on the internet if you take offense to something and then seconds later realize your misunderstanding.) Last edited by Angelakillsluts; 07-27-2006 at 01:30 PM.

No, they do not deny the supernatural forces (i.e. God), nor do they recognise them. To believe, judge and accept that the existence of God cannot be confirmed or denied does not require a tag since it is only deemed active in the face of believers to the contrary.

I was brought up Lutheran, Missouri Synod Lutheran, which is about as strict as Lutheran Churches get. In later years I went to a born again church, an Assemblies of God church. I went to that church for about 1 1/2 years. I learned a lot but got turned off by it when I started to have things happen to me that weren't coming from God, but from the preachers. I can go into more detail of anyone wants me to, but I'm trying to keep this short. Anyway, I finally stopped going. My boyfriend at the time and I both went there together and stopped together. He was actually the one that started because his dad went there.
My point is, she is going to feel really strong and encouraged by her experience at first, and she will probably learn a lot. Depending on her experiences she'll either stay with it or start to question it and move on. You can't change her any more than she should try to change you. As I said before, give it time and let it all play out. Maybe you'll find someone new in the mean time, maybe you won't. She may or may not too. But you have to do what's right for you. Hang in there, you can always vent to all of us when the going gets rough. Of course, we may tease you and make you feel worse. J/K ! :) Well, so much for keeping this short. :p
