"...is like finding out they committed suiсide, but worse."
That was an actual quote from my family from today. They just got back from a mid-week Bible study and apparently one of the topics today was...drumroll...ATHEISM. The logic behind this quote was, "Being an atheist is awful because you're dаmning your soul to Неll, which is just like suiсide. It's a very selfish thing to put your family through. But it's also worse than suiсide because you are forcing your loved ones to watch you walk around knowing that you're dead inside and dаmned."
I'm just about ready to give in folks. I just have no idea how you deal with such an asinine way of looking at the world.

| A feel a similar way to that. However, I know that they can save themselves if they change to the right path. You know what I mean. |

why would that be worse than suicide according to my christian-thinkseveryotherreligionissatanic mother committing suicide sends you straight to hell so being an athiest is a better choice because if you don't die early you'd live longer than if you committed suicide |

practically my entire family knows (well, not really more distant relatives like uncles, aunts, and cousins) knows that i'm atheist and they don't seem to care. that and one of my three brothers also share my beliefs.

Christians are supposed to be nice and dedicated to doing good in the world, which includes accepting the opinions of others and not interfering in others lifestyles because they disagree with us
I can't believe there are people out there who have this mindset, they make us kind Christians look bad |
