Let's Start Over, I'm Blackrook and I'm Here to Get Some Answers to Important Questions

You say your sister is an open atheist. Are you on speaking terms with her? It would be helpful for you to speak to someone in your immediate orbit, someone you may have unconditional trust for.

Our anonymity (members on a message board) removes a vital part of personal communication. I think directing these questions to someone that is close to you (and, conveniently for your sister's unbelief, may think of things from a different perspective) can be fruitful. Receiving answers from someone in your corner may inspire something more deep-seated than the result of an arrangement of characters on a screen.

(maybe a bit of irony there, but meh)

Well, my sister is 18-years-old and I'm not sure if she really knows why she is an atheist.

I would have to talk to someone who has the same age and experience to really have a useful conversation, I think.

I did know an atheist in law school, but he came back to Catholicism, partially because of my influence, and partially because his marriage broke up due to his own infidelity and this really caused him a spiritual crisis.

He told me he was cheating on his bills when he was an atheist, but once he returned to Catholicism he couldn't do it any more.

Don't jump on me for saying this, this is what HE said.

Well, ok, I'm trying to be nice but if you don't want to do that I will put you on ignore and pay attention to the people who want to talk constructively.

I don't think you understand normal banter on an online forum. Well that, or you're what we call a professional troll.
CapnAwesome was NOT rude to you. He's simply stating a fact about how he feels and then backed up his point with some confirmed statistics. No one is required to listen to you whine about your life, and by the way, you have been giving as good as you get in the myriad of baiting threads you've started. You sir are the one who needs to calm down. No insult was issued to you and your resulting case of Butthurt is of your own misguided sense of fair play.

Grow a thicker skin or please leave because we're all very tired of listening to you whine when anyone happens to disagree with you.

Well, thank you for your comments. I put CapnAwesome on the ignore list because he said he didn't care if I went back to being a Catholic. Since he has declared that he has no intention to engage me, I am no longer interested in what he has to say.

And I think in a few weeks I'll have this narrowed down to the people I want to talk to and then things will be ok.
