The most I have to deal with is my sister and brother-in-law. They are Wiccan or something like that, and although they've never said anything, there is uncomfortable silence when my atheistic views are brought up. Hardly the end of the world, but I'm sure it's more of a matter of them wondering if I judge them. My wife's family is to stupid to worry about. They are all self proclaimed Catholics that say one prayer a year at Easter, that they all loathe, and are drug addicts, thieves and hypocrites. I think they just like to hang a picture of Jesus on the wall to assure they can behave however they wish and still get into heaven.

I've been fortune not to have been born into one of those uber psychotic families.
