I got in a conversation today about religion....which probably wasn't a good idea.

I don't really  have any religion that I belong to.  Buddhism fits my beliefs most closely but I do still believe in God, however christianity doesn't work for me because I don't believe that the bible is the "word of God".  I have looked at many, many religions and not a one, not a single one, fits what I believe totally.  I believe in God because God has helped me, interviened in my life when thiings were tough and made me do the right thing when I almost made really, I mean REALLY stupid mistakes.  Long story...

So I asked someone who is Baptist, "how did you decide to become baptist?" and she explains.  And she said that it is good to bring a kid up with religion, yadda yadda, yadda, kind of hinting that I should take my son to church on a regular basis (who is 2).  I told her that I was raised catholic but don't really believe in those things now, and that my personal beliefs are a mixture of a lot of different religions.  

The conversation went on and it ended with her just telling me that I need to have "faith" that Christ my savior.  I let the matter drop, I have heard this story a million times over.  I can not have blind faith, how can anybody ever force themselves to believe in something? I just can't believe in the bible when those stories in there seem just so rediculous to me.   And bringing my son up Christian?  I am not sure.  I am not opposed to him learning about what Christians believe, but is it really necessary to take him to church every Sunday?  

What is the rright thing to do?  What do I teach him?  Do I try to force a religion on him that I personally don't believe in myself, is that really the best thing to do?  If i am not so sure what my own beliefs are, then how can I be a good teacher for him?
