Okay, I'll start it off:
How'd it go?
[–]Flawlessbraz[S] 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago
They pretty much mocked me and told me that to follow god is the way to live. I told them it's all Bs and i respect what they do but i will not participate. Then they asked me if i came from Monkeys or God. I got irritated and told them i was done talking to them. It's like they don't respect my decision. Anyone else experience this? They are Christian btw.

From the sounds of it, they are pretty ignorant Christians. Saw your post on r/IAmA.
I'm pretty shocked whenever I hear anyone try to say that creationism is correct and evolution means we are monkeys. Most Christians, including myself, believe in evolution.
Yeah, i was told i'd get more broad of an audience here. I don't know why they acted like so. I was brought up christian and isn't one of the things to accept people for who they are or something. They then said that i still have to go to church with them and pray with them and stuff. What should i do?
How old are you?
Generally, it's advised to not "come out" until you're old enough to make your own way in the world. There's a sadly large number of kids who get kicked out of the house for revealing their atheism.
I am 17. I would wait longer but i just cant take any longer. Everything i would do wrong It would be because of "Demons" and right because of "God" Cant i just be myself?

I guess done is done, now. Go along to get along, finish school, and at your first opportunity get the hell out of dodge to your own place.
[–]Flawlessbraz[S] 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
Yeah. Did you have to do this?
Fortunately, no. Although I was living on my own at a pretty early age my parents were never particularly religious... they exposed me to it, took me to church occasionally, boy scouts, had a bible in the house etc but I was never required to be counted amongst the faithful. I was lucky in that respect.
For what it's worth, if things go completely to shit, there are resources available. Check out /r/AtheistHavens if the worst case scenario plays out.
Thats good ;) Hopefully things won't get that far. In case it does i already found people near me. I have to get to bed. I will update tomorrow if anything happens. Goodnight.
