I need some help on something important.

I don't think it's a matter of what you BELIEVE. It's what you KNOW. If you KNOW there's a God, or if you don't KNOW there's a God. I take it you believe in evolution. My mum's a Jehovah Witness but I'm not, we just don't talk about it. Just tell your mum that you don't believe there is a God and if she can't accept that than she can go wandering in her own little world of make-believe.

Well, I for one am a Christian, but I do respect your belief. [Don't worry, I'm not gonna try to convert you or anything like that.] Talk to your parents on how you feel about this. They'll come to understand. And if they persist, you might as well give it a try. Still don't believe it? Once again, talk it out with your parents. If you feel strong about it, they ought to respect that.

well i have the same problem, i just say you can make me go to church and all that but you can't force me to belive in him. i my self belive we need physical proof to belive in anything. and if you scoold me say it to my face and don't get all religious and stuff, i hate that, and i won't do the same.

Nobody should try to force you to believe in something you don't really believe in. You should be free to believe in whatever you want to believe. If your mother cannot accept that, I feel sorry for her. But you should talk to her about it. She may just be in shock that you don't believe what she always thought you believed in, and she may just need a little while to accept it. But definitely talk to her. Don't yell at her or anything. Talk calmly. Even if she gets worked up, keep your cool. As I said, she may just need some time to accept the fact. Good luck with it.

Yikes thats harsh..I would just explain 2 her that u dont believe in god.If that doesn't work( I wouldn't recommend this)just refuse 2 go 2 church

Well, I am Christian but I respect and even embrace people who arent. For example, my opinion of you didnt change even after I realized you didn't believe in God. Just remember your Mom loves you, and if she truly wants to be "Godly", she will accept you for who you are. If she cant, then just try not to bring it up around her. I hope things work out for you.

It's quite unlike the true Christian to scold someone that harshly for not believing in God, let alone Catholicism. Yes sweets, I am a Christian, but I don't believe you're a wretched person for not believing God exists. That's your own opinion. I can't and won't judge you for it. She's your mother, so it's common cortesy to respect her wishes. She's blinded, and you must accept that. She sees you as damned for your beliefs. Yes, I believe you'll end up in hell when you've died if you still believe the way you do, but I have witnessed amazing changes in the lives of people who call themselves atheists. If she's annoying you, tell her. If she refuses to respond, don't let her push you around but be careful before you come off as too rude. I'm sure she still loves you and thinks she's doing the best for you. You simply need to edge her into the direction in which you're thinking. And to add something in...if you're an atheist because you don't believe in faith, the scientific paradigms of our generation collapse simply because one insignificant detail laid waste to many. Don't believe me? Look up a report from a non-biased reporter, if that's possible (not a scientist. A reporter. Scientist can easily become biased from their shallow belief in science alone.) So, dear, if you think atheism isn't a religion, you're wrong. It takes FAITH to believe science is correct, and even more faith to believe in a paradigm that falls eventually with new knowledge. Religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe. Your belief lies in the strength of man's science. Mine lies within the strength of a mighty and affectionate God, who watches the world suffer itself to death through humanity's obstinance, pride, and self-exaltation.
