We've only been members for one year, and although it was me who insisted in being baptized because I felt that "feeling" that the church was true, I now know that it is a farse.
There have been a series of incidents with the bishop and other members in our ward, that I stopped going to church three weeks ago.
Today, my wife told me that since it was me who dragged us into the church, that if I don't believe, that she will continue attending with the children anyway... And that it would harm our family and marriage.
I don't believe most of the stuff the church teaches, but I don't know what to do. If I decide to leave the church and finally I'm able to convince her to leave as well, I'm afraid our children will grow up with no church at all. There's no way I'm going back to the Catholic Church either.
I just want to read my Bible, and teach my children by example. Although I would love, in the long run, to attend a non-denominational Christian Bible-based church.
