1) If you have a kid, you won't go to church, but if your wife wants the kid to go to church... do you have a say?
2) Wife wants kids to get baptized... would u go? If the wife wants a religious name...
3) Pay $3000 a month for Private Christian school (or *insert religion here); pay for uniforms....will you have a fight with wife and say FUCK YOU, I ain't paying for that shit.
4) Kids going to church and you don't.
5) Would you wake up every Sunday to help your wife gets up at 6 AM so that the 2 & 4 yr old can get dressed to go to church.
6) Say your wife wants to donate to the homeless shelters because their church / religion is doing a fundraiser, will you say NO?
7) Wife wants to give 10% of family pay cheque to church, will you say NO?

See what I'm getting at. This is not just 1 hobby or 1 personality trait, this is a WHOLE new perspective on life choices you two NEED to work out. Have the talk early and walk away if you can't handle it.


added #7.

it's easier when you have the same values (be it faith based values or non-faith based values).
