I cannot say I relate with this a whole lot because I was pretty much always open to everyone about being an atheist. At least the people in my family. But I am so glad you did this and I'm sure it feels much better to be open and honest with everyone. surprised your grandmother is the only one to reach out to you honestly.
It's always funny to me when I hear about situations like this where friends or family will reach out, so concerned, telling you to rethink your decision and this and that... as if you've suddenly come up with some new religion or something. It's like, no, I don't have new beliefs I just realize that I never really believed in that stuff in the first place.
It's more of a realization about your self then some new decision you're making. The only decision involved is simply sharing your newfound epiphany with those you love. Are you gonna block grandma?!
I'm not going to block her unless she crosses a line. I do love her.
Don't worry My dad is steeping right now, the storm is coming. I'm sure I'll get an earful at some point from just about everyone.
