Reading stories of people's parents flipping out because their sons/daughters are atheists. Whats more, the problem only seems to exist in the USA.
In Europe, atheism is so widespread that nobody even cares. |

My dad is atheist but he hasn't told my grandparents.
I myself believe in theist evolution. |

Heh, Abandoned has a good point there. Nothing to lose by believing there is a God. What, will I be disappointed when I'm dead if there isn't?

| My dad believes in evolution, but he believes that God is behind all evolution. I, myself, hate the "in your face" Christianity of the south and midwest. |
