How do I get out of my mothers house.

RE: How do I get out of my mothers house.
Can you call a truce and agree to just never talk about religion/atheism?
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.

How about you let her have her delusion and she lets you have a roof over your head?

Until you can get a job to move out, this might be the best course of action. Think of it as paying for shelter and food by just ignoring her delusions. For now, concentrate on finding a community college course that will help you to be independent. Your mom will probably be happy that you are planning for your future.

Then stop.

You are wasting your time. She doesn't have answers, she has dogma and you are not going to change each other.

A job would be a good idea if only as it would limit the amount of time you have to spend with her. Take anything you can get.

I strongly suggest you emulate the Greek proverb about practicing virtue.

It's good that you're courageous about your atheism, but a roof over your head is sort of the trump card that your mum holds. Unless you're willing to walk the streets, giving atheist talking point to the other homeless people, you might consider belting up about your beliefs for the time being.

If you are at least 18, I have a lot of connections in the automotive industry. Tell me the city that you leave in and I'll see if I have any connections there. There are all different kinds of job in a parts assembly plant. If you want to come to Columbia SC, Clarksville TN, or Elizabethton KY, our brake plants are hiring like crazy right now.

I've always thought tasers are great for solving difficult arguments.

Seriously, though. If you're a minor you're stuck until you turn 18.

If pinkie pie isn't real, then how do you explain the existence of ponies, huh? If ponies are real, then that's proof that Pinkie Pie is real. Checkmate, christians!  Heart

Can you go to college or a trade school?

Just rob a bank or something. Then you get a free ticket into jail. By the time you get out and on probation your PO should be able to help get you into a halfway house or give you some advise on how to get into a better jail if you ended up liking that. Some people like the college and dorm room thing too though.

Ian, under you user name it says, "Badass gaytheist".
If you decide to keep that sharp edge, it is a real stupid decision.

You can be badass all you want, but you will reap what you sow and you will not like it.
I just watched the Wonka Chocolate factory again, and thought of it while typing.
The self centered, mouthy kids got weeded out.

I suggest wising up, doing what they told you here, try being nice, thoughtful and silent about atheism or your mom's views.
