Mommies...please answer this vaccination question?

I was raised as a Christian, but also lost faith. At age 19, I converted to Islam and have been Muslim ever since. Married to a wonderful Egyptian Muslim and have a beautiful almost 4 year old with another baby on the way.

I am Sunni Muslim which is what the majority of Muslims are. I know a lot of people have bad images of Islam due to the idiots like Bin Laden, but this is not what my religion is about. 99% of us live in peace and do not want to fight.

It is these few that make life hell for all people worldwide. I am always trying to tell others about Islam to help beat some of the misconceptions, but never would force my religion on anyone that doesn't want to know as this is in direct violation of the Qur'an and I am a strong believer in Islam. I left Christianity because a few things just didn't make much since to me.

The main thing was that God is supposed to be the one and only, which means no other can compare to him and yet a man was being compared. To me it didn't make sense, so I started looking elsewhere because I still believed God existed. My entire family is Christian and I am the only non-Christian (besides my daughter and husband and his family).

We get along fine, but in the beginning it was hard as my dad kept trying to get me to leave Islam for Christianity. He finally realized that I would not stand for it. I told him, my faith is mine and his is his.

I would never do what he was doing to me, so he stopped. That is the short version of my story. By the way, I was reading the other comments and I have to agree with you.

The answers here are a lot nicer. Everywhere else, people are always fighting and putting each other down. It gets old after a while and frankly, I am sick of it.

Glad that people here in the mommy section can be civilized and talk without the insults. :).

I moved to Australia form Europe at 4 years old with my family and was raised Orthodox. My partner was baptized Catholic, but really he was only baptized because of hes grandparents, hes parents hardly believe in anything and my Fiance is pretty much an atheist. We babtized our daughter in the Orthadox church as I believed it was a lot more important to my family for here to be christened as Orthodox, then it was for hes family to have her baptized in the Catholic church.

My own beliefs are a little odd the be honest, I believe in a higher power and mother nature and everything around my. I believe that god is somewhere, but do not really believe that God HAS to be a man. I also believe in guardian angels and the after life.

Yes, well I said my own beliefs are a little odd lol.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
