It was my children's grandparents who did the holding me down thing... their father's parents, and his sister. They're Pentecostal, or something of the tongue speaking sort. They asked me if I would bring the baby to their church to be blessed, and I came out to them as an atheist. They attacked me on the spot, and accused me of screwing a demon, and suggested that my son wasn't really their grandchild but a spawn of some otherworldly hell dwelling creature. I was going to call the cops, but I was glad to just get out of there. I have only seen them from a safe distance since then, and that was 5 years ago. There is a church on every corner here, and people are very set in their delusions/beliefs. Here being an atheist is NOT COOL at all.
