And your dh made enough $$ to support both of you comfortably, do you think you would be working?

I tend to disagree. I think having realistic expectations is more helpful than having unrealistic expectations, in that it's hard/exhausting enough without also having to deal with feelings of depression and/or let down on top of everything else.
"Yes. I go in to help pass out cookies & koolaid for snack or I provide that snack. I go in to read to the class or to run copies, lamenate (spelling?), fold newsletters for the teacher or secretary."
Sure sounds like volunteering to me.
Not trying to insult her at all and in fact I have not insulted her. This is a debate board and I am just pointing out an inconsistanacy in her posts. In other words I am debating her.

I didn't say Christians *still* accepted animal sacrifice LOL. I am well aware that animal sacrifice took place *only* in the Old Testement, that is, prior to the New Testement. However, animal sacrifice was, in fact, used/accepted as a means of atonement for sin, regardless of *when* it took place right?
Actually, only *Christians* need Christ LOL. *I* don't need anything (animals, humans or otherwise) to atone for sin because I hardly believe that killing an animal, or a human has anything remotely to do with the taking away of/atoning for sin. Why exactly do you think it does?
Do you honestly believe that killing/sacrificing an animal somehow *took* (meaning prior to the New Testement) away a person's sin? How? Likewise, do you honestly believe that killing/sacrificing a human (whether he choose it freely or not) actually takes away the *need* to atone for sin? Again how? As far as I'm concerned, Chistianity is nothing more than mythology (ok it's also the most horribly violent religion that has ever existed as well). Moreover, I don't even believe in the concept/idea of *sin* in the first place. What *you* call *sin*, I would simply call *human nature*.
"I am unaware of a single instance of Christian or Judaic human sacrifice."
Of course not, LOL Jesus *supposedly* took away the need to atone for sin right? Why would there be any instances of human sacrifice *after* Jesus?
