Quote:Should I tell my parents about my religious beliefs? It amuses me to see how they dodge past all my rituals I put in place to hint that I'm not Christian. I mean, I'm a published poet, and one of my poems (in print) handles about the absence of god and how religion is a bad influence. They ignored it completely, smiled and said "you really have a talent".
It sounds as if they are more concerned with outer appearances than actual belief. If so, can you go through the motions for a few more years until you are old enough to get out of there? Lots of people go to jobs they hate for years because they have to pay the bills. Try looking at it that way.
The break will come soon enough when you are able to run your own life.
BTW, what country are you in?
