Welcome, Vin.

Your situation reminds me of this comment from H. L. Mencken:

Quote:The Christian church, in its attitude toward science, shows the mind of a more or less enlightened man of the Thirteenth Century. It no longer believes that the earth is flat, but it is still convinced that prayer can cure after medicine fails.


Frankly, it doesn't matter what your family does. Just make sure you have doctors who don't waste their time praying.
