They recently joined a new church and i promised my mom that i would come once just to make her happy because i know it wont affect me in any way. So i went, at the end though some of them came up to me to ask if i would come back. I replied "probably not, I'm an atheist". So then after that they tried to debate me on the existence of god obviously they had no proof and they just mocked evolution  and the big bang.

At the end though this is what really pissed me off they said "give it three months you will be reborn and sitting in this church willingly". What do i do in this situation im surrounded by people that think they will change me i cant reason with them because they are just mentally incompetent to think rationally.

You're an adult and im 4 years older than you so set these people look them deep into their eyes and tell them to respect your wishes 
and that it's cool that you're doing this for me however i never asked for it. After saying that quote luke 16:31 "But he said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead."

But...should you decide to venture back there, simply ask the next person who decides to challenge you, when the last time they beat their slave was, or if they ever ate a pepperoni pizza, or if their wife has short hair, do they know she's going to hell for that. Start pointing out all the unpleasant parts of the buy-bull and then walk away. Ask them how they can live with themselves knowing they try to sell a story of genocide (the ark) by making it look cute, to small children. Ask them if they wear cotton blends or any kind of mixed fabric.

You don't need that sort of negativity in your life.

OH they'll just say that stuff only applies to the jews..... except the queer-hating parts.  They like that stuff.

Hi Asyrel, It sounds like your family is really open minded about your atheism. I would stand firm.

Er, that would be jesusism!

No they're not. An openminded family would have done what my parents did, talked to me for about 10 minutes about why I deconverted and never bothered me again about it.

step 1. get bath bomb
step 2. put bath bomb in clothing
step 3. get baptized
step 4. watch as everyone freaks out as the water turns black from bath bomb
step 5. start screaming satanic shit 
step 6. get the fuck out of there

and there you have it they will never bother you ever. Tongue
