Technically I'm agnostic, however, I have been leaning towards full on atheist. Lets just say I really don't think there's a God and don't think it really makes any sense at all.
But anyways, I grew up in the Mormon faith. Nothing against the religion itself, I just honestly believe that religion is more used as a way to control the masses. My parents are good members of the church and probably some of the most tolerant and accepting Christians. They know that I only go to church for an hour every Sunday and are fine with it. But I always get worried if I tell them I don't believe in God what they'll do. I mean they're tolerant and are smart people. They're both lawyers for crying out loud. LOL
I tried this one website called ex-mormon.org but that website is just full of bitter former members who seem to just hate the Mormon faith. I'm not interested in finding another religion; I just want to kind of move away from it. I'm a 22 year old community college student still living at home. I am transferring to a 4 year in Jan of 2016 so maybe that's when I should tell my parents I just don't believe in God anymore?
I don't know...I had a best friend and she stopped being friends with me just because I told her I didn't believe in God anymore. She apparently wanted to only hangout with "worthy" return Missionaries who are wanting to get married in the temple. Keep in mind the weeks leading up to this she was sexting me and we were drinking quite a bit.
I really just don't know what to do. HELP
