Parents freak out when their child announces he's an atheist
#30
RE: Parents freak out when their child announces he's an atheist
Either his parents found the link or the kid was afraid they would and he deleted it. I feel bad for him, because after the initial shock of me telling my parents I don't believe in god and a short debate on his existence, I was never forced to go to church again. In fact, we didn't even talk about it until I brought it up some 16 years later.

My mom and dad definitely had their faults(who doesn't?), but I was damn lucky to have them as parents. I hope to be as good as they were.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
