That ping made me so angry I could change my religion. I'm Methodist and the 'open hearts, open minds, open doors' thing has been tough to live with sometimes.

But forcing down someone's throat [no pun intended,] and children in particular, is vile.

That ping made me so angry I could change my religion. I'm Methodist and the 'open hearts, open minds, open doors' thing has been tough to live with sometimes. I actually did. Though my United Methodist church was conservative and bible-believing, I felt as though we were simply a cash cow for the State conference so they could fund their leftist agenda. When we moved out of Jackson, MS down to Terry, MS (about 20 miles south), we started shopping other churches. After visiting a couple of Baptist churches, we settled on a Congregational Methodist church. The Congregational Methodists have been around for 150 years, but they've only recently started moving out of the backcountry and into the suburbs (I know I know, you probably think the entire State of Mississippi is "back country", but I digress 8^D). They adhere to Methodist doctrine of our founder John Wesley, but they're much more conservative. You might want to explore going to a Congregational Methodist, or Wesleyan, or even a Church of God. No need using your tithe to fund the Iraq anti-War movement.
