My mother annoys me

I am staggered that discussing the existence of god in my house (well my parents' household, I don't live with them anymore) is somewhat frowned on.
Whenever I try and bring 'god' into conversations, to point out the stupidity of things in the bible for example, I get one of two responses.
Dad: "Well sorry Mr Smart-Arse"
Mom: "tut, why do you have to be so disrespectful"
Seriously? WTF!
Are my parent's the only ones who refuse to converse on this subject? It's like they are scared because I am right. My dad seems intent on not even giving a shit on the subject. My mother seems to take offence whenever I insult religion, like I'm attacking her beliefs or something. But she doesn't even believe, she knows herself it's all stupid. "They are nice stories on how to live your life why don't you just be nice about it". Okay, for one, my mother hasn't read a single verse of the fuckin' bible. Two, it's not nice, and I've said this countless times to them.
The thing which frustrates me is the fact they both refuse to even discuss the existence of god or religion at all. Like it's not a topic they are even interested in.
It really saddens me that so many people (like my parents) just don't seem to give a fuck, yet somehow think they owe something to religion by trying to defend it blindly.
Makes me happy that I found this place though at least. Just had to vent, it was on my mind.
