about the christian family


as i said yesterday i will try to post more about daily life stuff

when i was approached by this people from the christian religion i talked about int he last post, i was a bit scared, but not so much

because by stating your religion as soon as you first meet someone you're establishing a difference between the 2 of you and bringing up a subject that is likely to make the other person feel unconfrotable

if i were in the US, I'd be afraid that the person talking me about christianity is a gun freak that has just voted for bush and hates me for being a foreigner, but in new zealand religion usually means good news, at least for me

families here had at least 10 children, one family had 11, and it really helped to see how happy all this children were, they were all running around, playing and having fun. and the parents seem to really care about them

when i came home with them they told me the childrens were all being home schooled, and the all learn some trade, electricity, carpentry, etc by the age of 20

and I thought I wish my parents had cared that much for me, and had taught me a trade when I was young

well I'm sure they loved me their own way
