Apparently my dad failed

At parenting because.. I don't believe in God.

I never knew until now that I had a godparent in case something happens or whatever, and I said "please don't tell me I have one" He said "uh yeah.. why wouldn't you?"

"Because I don't believe in any of that stuff."
"Please don't say that, you have to in case something happens to me or your mom."
"I just don't believe in it. I haven't for years."
"Well then I've clearly failed as a parent if my own son doesn't believe in God."


Frankly, this might upset the people who do believe in this stuff, I think it's crap. I don't see why we have to pay lots of money to learn the teachings of something that claims to be so crucial to life. It sounds like a scam to me. I don't believe in it, I have no reason to. There's no point in believing in something if at crucial times, nothing will happen when praying to said something.

Anyways, what do you guys think about the whole religion stuff?

You can't blame the Atheists for that, blame all the people who set up a bad name for you and made you all look bad.

Frankly, a lot of us hate anyone who isn't.[/quote]
I can't stand people that hate others based on religion. If they're being a zealot prick that's one thing, but someone else having different beliefs than you shouldn't affect you one bit.
[/quote]

Of course you are under the assumption that they're singling out the religious folk and persecuting them for no reason, when I would assume it's likely that their proselytizing isn't well received (and in fact, the reason that they end up hating them. "Oh you're an Athiest? Let me tell you how great Jesus is. I love jesus. You're going to go to hell you know. Jesus is the reason for the season, jesus is love, jesus is the light, jesus jesus jesus...").

Exactly.
I don't appreciate being called 'Evil' because I don't believe in a God.

I agree with you. We all have our own rights. But I believe in God, and Im not calling you evil.

I know a few Atheists, and they're friends with me, and im Catholic.
 
Ahem.

Me = Christian. Parents = Hope I stay like that, but have told me that they will always accept me unless I become a willing criminal (NOT "SINNER," "CRIMINAL." And no, piracy does not count.)

Bible thumping = Zealot prick. Do not do, do not want. Claiming religious beliefs are less plausible than the odds of Evolution being right = :rofl2:

Believe what you wanna believe, if they won't accept you the way you are, than I'm sorry to say that they have failed.

EDIT: Atheist =/= evil. Troll logic much?
 
You know what I find so much fail inside this topic, it doesn't answer from the very first post.

TC, you need to...first of all stop posting topics that's going to cause multiple feedbacks you isn't willing going to acknowledge. I remember you post about you cutting yourself and feeling like its the only way to cope with your problems! We given you advice and solutions but you still insist on trying to find an answer here.

Also your father doesn't fail by not teaching you the path of righteousness, he only fails when he STOPS teaching you. So if he can't convince you then the next day it just another chance to be enlightened. Heck I didn't come into full realization why God is so important till I saw my father's word come into fruitation about my life turning into nothing but a puppet to people's bidding. I didn't understand him till I it became clear my life was going nowhere, so I decided to accept Jesus as my personal Lord and Savoir.

Also, don't come posting any personal problems that deals with religion you isn't going to find the answer here.

I don't really give a shit what people think of me. And it's not "apparently I think"... he actually does care what I believe in.. well.. DON'T believe in.

Apparently you don't understand the thread at all... I'm not looking for help or anything, lol. I'm just posting about the little discussion me and my dad had last night, and wanted peoples input about the subject, notice how everybody else is posting? Yeah, use that as a guideline.

Also, don't talk to me about being enlightened, it will actually fall on deaf ears. I'm not believing in it, NOTHING can convince me to, and I don't plan on to. Savvy?

No, this is just another pass time when you're not cutting yourself. Hey, bravo when you decide to understand that your father only cares for your sanity. You don't think he doesn't see what you have been doing to youself?

Heck, all I can say to you is just live by your beliefs. Sooner or later, this topic will come up again and will be serious business between you and your father. Just remember that you didn't want any help from anybody so when your life goes spirling out of control don't come here and act like you is asking for help the first time. Each time people blog about their issues, its a sign for help and guidance. You can pretend ALL you want thinking that any help is useless but that's when happens to individuals who are going to self-destruct. I just pray you isn't going to be one of them.
 
This thread is just a troll, trolling for trolls. You're what, 21? you should be able to look after yourself by now anyway, if you don't like your parents views and beliefs then go make your own way in the world. It's Christmas Eve, that means more than "OMFG!!! I want teh XL under my tree" to some people here (and no, I'm not one of them). How about trying to be a little more sensitive and mature.

HINT: You are not the centre of the universe.
