How does one stay sane in a religious environment and/or family?

RE: How does one stay sane in a religious environment and/or family?
Sounds tough living with your sister.

I myself am very lacking in independence too, mainly with getting about outside - I have to be escorted places before being able to get to them myself, and sometimes I have to be shown multiple times. I'm also very forgetful - I have a bad short term memory and almost non-existent visual memory and imagination - and I forget routes and dates a lot.

... but I hope I become more independent soon enough.

I think its very funny when (in Kentucky) you tell one of these fundies that you're an atheist they treat you as if you're retarded.
if you give them any new info that they are not aware of they call you a.
Liar I hate my phone
I do not think it is necessary to believe that the same God who has given us our senses, reason, and intelligence wished us to abandon their use, giving us by some other means the information that we could gain through them
