Ok, I have been in here bullshi.tting 95% of the time when I reply to all thread (Except to Jubi's threads that I think she seems cute whe she is mad answering my replies to her despite smiting me like the world is going to end tomorrw) This time I need some real thoughts and inputs on what you would do if you were in my shoes. This is about religious belief so I figure I let my BEST FRIENDS AND FELLOW PEBHMONG and my #1 ex lover/hater JUBI give some suggestions. So here we go.

Right now I have not yet decided if I wanted to church or the hmong uaj neej stuff way. I still attend and help out both sides no matter hmong culture or the church way. I like having open options no matter which way I go. But most don't give you that option to help one or the other which is where I am stuck at.I have come to a point now that my family wants me to pick a way and see what I would go with. (Side note story with my parents). When they both passed away since I was young did not know crap about anything  and they were 50\50 with the hmong uaj neej people and the church no one wanted to help because they did not attend church every sunday and they were assumed MIA even with their name in the church. I know, just like anyone else if you don't attend that long you are in even in my books not considered a member and totally agree.

Being that they believed in half and half no one on the church or hmong culture wanted to help when they passed away. I guess they need someone to send their souls to the next world or something either church or hmong way. Not sure why it was so hard and a huge matter. Again, I will let this for the more understandable pebhmong folks to explain to me since I have no Idea.

What route wouild you take. I know that the church way is more easier these days and I seem to be heading that way. Just wanted to see what the smart people of pebhmong would do if they were in my shoe?
me i said hmong culture...yus tuag tau pob su ntim tib si...mus church tsis tau pob su ntim..

both have restrictions. no religion is perfect so pick the less of the two evils according to your lifestyle. but once picked, stay dedicated. attend sunday school if you decided that church is the way. attend weekly shamanism event if the old religion is your choice.

questions you'd need to ask; 1) can/will you accept God? 2) are you willing to lean hmong funeral rituals?

I'd opt for the ways of my parents, great-grandparents and great-great ancestors.
