RE: So I had dinner at my grandparents...
@g-mark - thanks for the tips.

1. Do you think your grandparents wouldn't have an open mind then/ wouldn't be honest with you?
2. Yours isn't a belief stance. It's non belief. They can respect your non belief. You'd have to present an alternative moral basis perhaps?
3. If you ask them to read anti Christian book you of course have to realise that they won't be so open minded that their "brains fall out".

1. I think that because of their believing in christianity for so long, it will be hard to imagine a situation where god were not real.
2. Even if it's non-belief, I hope they can respect my position/view, though I don't count on it.
3. I'm not asking for them to be convinced by any book I might give them, but that they would read it.

Some christians will say there is scientific reason to believe, just not absolute.

Haha, well no. What I want is to expose myself to many ideas so I can make a proper judgement, rather than just going with one belief because someone tells me it's real.
