My mom's idea of a good path
#7
RE: My mom's idea of a good path
logic missing

church makes her happy so church is good?
ergo
cocaine makes me happy so cocaine is good?

no hell or original sin but still christian?
need religion to be good a shows lack empathy.

she is scared you wont blend in like a good sheep & life will be tougher as a minority
basic heard instinct out of concern for you

you don't need to debunk her or argue, its reassurance you are ok, will be ok & have good values she needs

christianity isn't morally good, doesn't teach the golden rule & past & present day history shows that

if you want to discuss with her id start with, why of all the religions should you pick christian?
you could highlight me living in a 90% buddhist country & ask if that means I should be Buddhist by default or point to india that's 80% (guess) hindu

hope that give you some ideas, all the best
