Inspired by some of the comments about Brokeback Mountain, I’d like to ask the question:<\/p>\n
Is avoiding things, places and people that violate your beliefs the best way of coping, and teaching your children?<\/p>\n
If I disagree with the consumption of alcohol, should I avoid people who consume it, places where they consume it and shut down all conversations I hear my children starting in regard to alcohol with a firm, “We don’t drink alcohol and I don’t want to hear anything more about it”?<\/p>\n
I’m just wondering if this is the best way to handle living in a world of people with contradictory beliefs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
