Coming out of the Atheist closet...
#4
RE: Coming out of the Atheist closet...
My Grandfather is a baptist pastor and my mom has grown up debating the bible with every missionary that came knocking to our door, so she would freak if I told her so I feel your pain. I am lucky enough though to live 3000 miles away from them. Im sure she would pull the bible out to show me where I was wrong, problem is it wouldn't mean any more to me if she was quoting chapters from a harry potter book.

Id have to agree with Scented Nectar. But only you could know if the outcome of "coming out" to your parents is worth the backlash.
