I have a question about religious parents
#21
RE: I have a question about religious parents
I lost family.  I lost a job because a Supervisor checked my browser history and found the Atheist Forums link.  (Sure, I shouldn't have checked it at work, but hey, the same Supervisor spent hours on Facebook and Pinterest and LinkedIn . . . THAT type of activity she would have forgiven.)
The kid sounds nervous and kind of stuck on a theme, but hey - "coming out" as an atheist is a big decision for a lot of folks.  And DA is still pretty young.

Pretty sure I knew what you were going ask so I didn't bother to real the OP. No, you can't trade them in for secular parents. Now go to your room and think about it.

My parents never really talked about it after I left the church. I'm sure they found it less embarrassing when I didn't go at all vs me getting up and walking out and not returning.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
