See you've asked these people to make decisions for you, in other words you have adopted them as parents, you really believe that is a good thing. Have they loved you these 14 years, feed you, gave you a home and all parents do for their child, have they?
Asking someone for advice or venting to them is not the same thing as seeing them as a parental figure. I see no evidence that he is looking at us as parents anyway. Teenagers and young adults are allowed to disagree with their parents.

No, his parents don't have the right to decide whether he will believe in god or not. Would you say the same thing about atheist parents if their child decided to join your faith? Would you tell that child that the fact that his parents have done their job means that he can't ever question their views?

Do guilt trips normally work for you? My eldest son is a Christian. Maybe I should knock on his door and say, Listen young man, I did all these wonderful things for you so stop being a theist. Except I wouldn't do that because the choice is his not mine and I didn't do the things that mothers do so that his mind would always be a slave to mine.
Quote:I'm old enough to be your parents parent, I've seen things even they have not lived long enough to see and understand, so believe me when I say this, these people here couldn't care less if you wind up in hell, all they are looking for is a victory, their hatred for God blinds them.
I do not hate a nonexistent entity anymore than I hate Voldemort.
Quote:If you do not believe me read the responses that came my way from them, judge for yourself.
Sure, read my responses. I am normally polite but I assume that any Christian that voluntarily enters an atheist forum is here either because they love more heated debate or they want to convert the heathens.
Quote:You need to think about the love your parents and you have for each other and you might want to brows through this forum and see the relationship some of these gave up with their families, just to be an atheist. Seems to me they chose atheism over family and you know what they cry about Jesus saying He was more important than family, if they only knew what He meant. I have no other advise to give you and the decisions your's and no one else's.
Wishing you a good future with your family.

Wow.
