Need advice...

[chasm]

My first bit of advice would be to cut at least 7 e's off your name.

I don't think I could give you advice for your family problems. I am not emotionally attached to my family: I don't need them. I could go on and be happy in life and never speak to them again. It seems like you aren't this kind of person, and I can't relate to that kind of thinking. You know, that I need my family. Fuck them (my family). Anyway, I can relate to the part about them not accepting my beliefs as an atheist. I did get "yelled at" by my mother once, who interrogated me about why I was an atheist. So I can relate to this part. I think your best bet would be to tell your family "I love you, but you have to accept my beliefs. I accept your's! I don't believe the same things as you, and if you don't like it, that's fine. Just don't yell at me about it. I don't yell at you about how stupid your beliefs are, do I? I'm going to do what I'm going to do, and you can do what you're going to do. And if you can't handle that then get out of my life. Now, please pass me the salt."
