She cannot take criticism because every time I give her arguments to refute and debunk hers, she gets upset as if I'm trying to hurt her. I need to get out of here but I cannot get a job because I have no job experience so nobody wants to take their chances with me, and I cannot get SSI from Social Security because they claim I'm not "mentally disabled enough" and I tried appealing to them, and I got nothing. So, I have no way to get money to afford housing. Are there alternatives so I can get out of this household? Thanks a bunch.
Ask her to forgive you.

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)
