If I had kids I would have a will set aside for who I would want to raise them.. family or not. And I'm not religious so that wouldn't really worry me. If I had kids, I would teach them to think freely for themselves and believe in whatever they want as long as they are happy and kind to others.

2024-05-10 22:17:42 +0000 UTCgoodness i wasn't trying to start a whole debate. i'm just saying the show kind of picks and chooses when it wants to make pam religious and it doesn't do that with any of the other characters. i think they either need to keep it consistent in the writing room or not touch on religion at all their show. part of what makes it stand so much out is that none of the other characters have that focus that pam does. and what do you mean my take on presbyterian doesn't make sense? it's a denomination not a religion, that's all i'm saying. you wouldn't cal methodist or baptist a religion, they're all denominations of the same religion. i just think it's a storyline the writers get lazy on and just throw in there for some reason. like with angela it's consistent. but we don't even know her denomination or have seen her church. with pam though it just feels different and random when they decide to throw it in. that's all i'm saying.

2024-05-10 15:02:57 +0000 UTCKids would go to the surviving family first anyways before god parents. There is no actual legal binding behind 'god parents'. It's not a legally defined relationship. The idea is just to pick someone from your faith who will guide your child through the same religious path you were on, not to pick someone to take your child in and raise them. That's not how guardian laws work.

2024-05-10 08:29:03 +0000 UTCReligion is one of the most inconsistent things there is anyways. I don't think any of this is weird at all. Most people that go to church have no idea why they go and don't practice any kind of faith outside of that one hour a week. This definitely happens with baptisms too. Some of the least truly religious people I've ever known still go through all the traditional motions because it's what everyone in their family does or whatever. Your thing about Presbyterianism doesn't make sense. It's just a form of the protestant church like Roman Catholic is a form of Catholicism and many other subsects of religion, there's no inconsistency there with the grandmother. I think you really just nailed it with 'it shows they have lives outside the office' and I don't think the show really needs to explain more than that.

2024-05-10 04:39:00 +0000 UTCi never thought it was super weird for them to pick people we don't know as the god parents. i like that it shows us they have lives outside of what we see. i have two sets of god parents, and one of them our family is no longer in contact with and growing up who'd "get me" was different than the godparents were so idk lol also this show gets weird about specially pam and religion. it's like they're not consistent with it or forget previous written things. the episode when michael thinks they're cursed she and daryl find out they're both presbyterian and high five and say "same religion!" (not to be a stickler but that's a denomination not religion) then she has her grandmother who is super old fashioned and may be for religious reasons whom we encounter at the wedding. then jim and pam want to have their baby baptized but this episode feels like jim and pam are total strangers to the church and the priest even gets the name wrong and it feels like they just walked into a random church. idk i can't explain it lol this whole episode felt weird though even outside of the godparent thing

2024-05-10 02:46:40 +0000 UTCI don't have any kids of my own but I think I would want the God parents to be people I've known and trusted for a really long time. The whole point is for them to be trust worthy caretakers in the event of something happening to you.. and you best believe I am not putting people I haven't known that long in that position.
