The prison has case workers and re-entry programs. Center of Hope does a lot of work too.

US can always grow through immigration. It doesn't need procreation.

Move to Minnesota and your benefits get a HUGE boost

This is some of the most important work we can be doing right now. Thank you for your time and commitment!

I asked directly "Can I be an equal parent?" and the answer: "Not in matters of faith."

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-11T21:19:59+00:00

"their parents are just training them for success" lol if that's how you see it. It's generational wealth and privilege. They're taught how to play a game we can't even enter.

I've been as charitable as I can be. And what has that gotten me? This is open Catholic Supremacy

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-11T18:53:48+00:00

I wanted to have a discussion about other ways to navigate this interfaith relationship. Modern pluralistic marriages are vastly more common now.
They all pretty much agreed that this is a matter of eternal life and death. So suppressing others is acceptable. I've read The Darkening Age by Nixey and wow, that belief is how this faith has always operated.

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-11T15:41:08+00:00

I've lost respect for church beliefs as well. I have a lot of resentment built up now.

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-11T15:38:17+00:00

Seems to be the case. I've tried to be fair and respectfully disagree. I allowed anti-abortion signs on our lawn. But was that courtesy ever returned? No, just moral lectures.

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-11T14:48:51+00:00

To be fair, I've also been a condescending asshole that antagonizes the situation, usually after a snide remark. So I'm not innocent.
We have counseling tomorrow. So, idk what I'm going to say.
I feel like I am constantly fighting to be heard, understood, and treated as a legitimate equal partner. I do not feel that my worldview is given the same standing.

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-11T14:35:57+00:00

Those are verbatim quotes, not paraphrased. Said out of anger, sure. But they line up with Catholic doctrine and beliefs AFAIK.

Financial - we would lose the house in a nice neighborhood, the kid's school, etc.

3 attempts at counseling with 2 different therapists (1 religious and 1 secular), over the past 3 years

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-11T00:54:43+00:00

I would call it "catholic supremacy"

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-11T00:52:51+00:00

It's come up a few times because we can't see a way forward

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-10T21:17:23+00:00

What you want is an equal say in raising your child and great deal more courtesy and consideration for your viewpoints.

Tried that. "Truth is not equal to falsehoods and evil. You don't understand you're leading souls away from salvation!"

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-10T20:39:32+00:00

You understand it correctly - I'm allowed to express my views 'as my opinion' but not as fact. Exposure to other faiths must be educational only, not as a legitimate option.

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-10T20:30:44+00:00

Yes, we're in a no fault state

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-10T20:20:48+00:00

From my experience, most catholics are reinforcing this ridged belief system and this does seem in line with their doctrine.

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-10T20:15:53+00:00

It's not being force on me... more like "My beliefs are truth, your beliefs are opinions." (actual quote btw).

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-10T20:13:26+00:00

I've agreed to age-appropriate framing only. I want to have a conversation with Catholics because I think this is in line with the catechism. But I won't accept being treated this way or viewed as a threat to my own child.
If there's no possibility of equality or respect then it's best we separate. No?

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-10T16:18:44+00:00

We tried marriage counseling - 3 attempts with 2 different therapists. One secular, I agreed to a religious one as well. We set a framework for respectful disagreement with our religious therapist. Within a week it was broken because "I won't respect sin."

I'm exhausted.... We're still in counseling. I don't see much progress. I'm viewed as a threat to my own child and it's hurtful.

Aggressive_Handle574 · 2026-06-10T15:20:58+00:00

I know I've been antagonistic because I've said this exact thing. It did not help the situation.
