You're pushing back. That exacerbates the situation. And yes, they do have the right to tell you that you have to go to church. I understand that you hate it and don't want to go. But just playing along will make your life easier. There are all sorts of ways to make an irritating, boring church service more bearable. Daydreams and fantasies, "listening" to your favorite tunes in your head, mentally critiquing the sermon, etc. (That could lead to some good questions to ask the parental units, you know.) It's annoying, but it is a small price to pay for a measure of peace in your house.
If you push, expect them to keep escalating. What is not your choice, until you are 18, is blatant defiance. Unless you are truly ready to get a job, pay for your own apartment and phone and internet and TV and transportation and insurance.
