How do you deal with a religious family?
#3
RE: How do you deal with a religious family?
I don't think there's an easy way around it for you. In my case, my whole family is Christian but my immediate family never went to church so I'm able to keep quiet about my beliefs and I don't have to worry about them taking my kid to church (other than church camp this summer, which she enjoyed, but the "praying was annoying" haha that's my girl) or brainwashing her.

You, I'm afraid, will have to confront them. There's no easy way around it. I would suggest a letter. That way your voice and your main points can e heard before any hollering or rejecting goes on.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
