    I would be upset if my child turned out to be a drug-addict, an alcoholic or a criminal.

    I would be thrilled if my child found a belief - ANY belief - that led him to live a good life, and be a good person.

    To truly love a child is to let go of that child, and watch them live their own lives. The best we can hope for is that they are happy, productive, healthy people. What religion - if any - they choose sometimes should be the very least of a parents worries.

    "We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam

    "We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
