Yes, we do. He's open-minded, and maybe that was what allowed him to "open his eyes".

If you're as young as I think you are, never let anyone disparage your opinion on that account. All you have or ever will have is your point of view which is based on your ability to make sense of the world. What you think is what you think until you yourself have reason to think otherwise. Anyone who tries to bully you into their way of thinking based on how long they've been on the planet isn't worth listening to.
Yes, quite young. Just turned 17 last month. However, it is tradition here that we, as a family, live together as long as we can, so I do not have to leave home.
I'm in first year College, taking up Computer Science. I do not shout my Atheist views, or else I WILL be bullied. However, I'm ready to tell anyone who asks about it (almost...).

Too bad, I don't have the ashtray and the matches...

Thanks for the warm welcome, everybody. I'm enjoying it here, already! Big Grin
