  • Lots of y’all are posting about the politics divide. My mom won’t let the church thing rest. When I moved out for college she was constantly asking about me finding a new “church home” there. Eventually I had to have the talk and she just couldn’t comprehend that I could be secular and have a moral compass without a bible. It helped me a little that my siblings have finally had the talk too, but every couple of months or years she checks in to see if we’ve changed our minds. At least we aren’t being disowned or anything, but holy shit please just let me have my own beliefs. I think she’s worried we’re all going to hell (especially worried about grandkids), which I guess I empathize with a tiny bit if I put myself in the shoes of a concerned religious parent, but like, just pray on it and trust the Lord or whatever. We’ve made up our minds.
