My first ex-husband was raised Pentecostal. He was in many ways quite the repressed young man. I studied ballet for nine years as a child and can't understand or sympathize with a religion that thinks dancing is sinful. Speaking as a moderate to liberal Roman Catholic with some Pentecostal cousins that stuff has kinda always spooked me. When it comes to Protestantism I love the Episcopal and Anglican churches although those churches are I'm sure in the eyes of many just Catholicism without the Pope.
Maybe you could get her to checkout the United Methodist church? I'm a bit biased against fundamentalism as a Roman Catholic from the Bible belt who has had to face ignorance and and bigotry. I don't think that thinking about sex is a sin. People think about all sorts of things. Sin, in my perhaps not so humble opinion, is about actions more than thoughts.
Is it normal that my ex is in the church and thinks about me sexually?
