Have to Go To Church

RE: Have to Go To Church
You won't be a kid forever.

My advice: get good grades, go to college out of state, and don't worry about church.

I was never really a Christian. I pretended for a while to make my life easier. When I got to college, I told my parents that I didn't believe. They didn't respond nearly as bad as I thought they would. Also, if your family only goes to church during certain seasons, you'll probably be okay to tell them... But you know them and we don't so if you don't think they'd respond well, then just grin and bear it until you don't have to.

Something I did---volunteer to be an usher or a Sunday School helper or something. You can babysit squalling kids instead of listening to a droning sermon.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
