Hm. I know about that to some extent. My family - Gods, my uncle and his family, and my mother, are atheists. The other uncle and his family to the best of my knowledge just deny religion exists, so - secular humanist? My beloved Granny a lay-Anglican and her ex-husband a Thai Buddhist. Dad is Irish Pagan, but a lot of it has slithered out of him. He celebrates the Sabbats with me in an absent kind of way, and keeps his altar though I doubt even he knows that's what it is, and believes a lot of the Irish "folk" ways. It's funny how religion weaves in and out of the family, and who picks up what. Your Grandma sounds like an awesome lady. It always pissed me off that there was so little left of religion in my family by the time I arrived that there was no one to teach me anything at all. Not that I'll ever have children, but I'd like to think that kind of oversite wouldn't be repeated by me. *Shrug*
