Some help, please

Agnostic is when you dont believe in a higher power. When you believe in nothing like that. I am Agnostic as well. I was baptized, confirmed, went thru communion. I was even an alter boy for years.

The best advice I can give, is if your parents wont take no for an answer, then try to bear thru it. If you feel so strongly against it that you cannot survive that hour, then simply refuse to go, no matter the consequences. Really those are your only 2 choices.
 
In my opinion you should go. It's pretty interesting and such. (:
Then again I believe in all of that. And i am very religious.

I think you should tell her that you dont believe and you shouldnt be forced to do something you arent comfortable with/dont believe in. If that doesnt work then I think you should talk to the Pastor about it.. even though you dont know him it's always good to get advice from the Pastor and he can help you through things. (:

Well you should go.

It's not that bad at all.
Hon.
I don't believe in god. I'm agnostic.
I wouldn't stand being taught religion for one second.
I don't believe in it.

My mom isn't stupid. She'll drag me there. -__-
Just TRY it, it might not be all that bad.
 
I won't like it, but I guess I can just try to live with it for a bit.
It won't really KILL me.
I see it more like a waste of time though. Sitting through someone talking about something I do not believe in.

I would be blunt with my parents but just the shock of it freaks me out.
 
Yes I felt the same way after awhile, just dont pay attention to what they are babbling. I never did once my mind was made up. My girlfriend's mom recently dragged me to church. Thankfully it was all in Latin and I didnt understand what the heck was going on. But it was a 2 hour service with all the incense. I was dying at the end. I had an allergic reaction to it and my eyes watered up, my face swelled a little bit and I couldnt see anything until we left and got into fresh air

Yeah, I've had to sit through Church a few times. It isn't really that bad, except when everyone does something or says something at the exact same time and you're just sitting there...

There really isn't much you can do right now, you'll just have to go with it. =/

Maybe it'll change your thought about it.

I dont know just maybe..
 
I had to go to a church thing for my great-grandmothers funeral a few months ago.

One of the most boring things I've ever done.

That's what my problem is. Not that it will, because it won't.
Just the fact that they'll try to make me believe in it which shouldn't be forced upon.
I don't want to go to church. At all. I just don't like any worshiping or belief in a high power but I guess I'll just go and do what you guys say, just ignore whatever they're doing.

Thanks for the help so far guys. I'll just stick it through for now and then talk to my parents.

It won't be quite as bad as you think, but it will be boring.

This isn't going to be my first time going to church.
The last time I went was oh, say 3-4 years ago?
Yeah, I don't like it. At all. And you're right it is very boring. =/

There is no reason why going to Church should stress you out that much.
If it does, you have some serious problems.

I have to go to church when I'm staying with my grandmother. She is very religious and all of my relatives on her side are very religious. When my mother was a little girl she was forced to go to church every Sunday and she hated it. By the time my mom married my dad they decided they didn't want me and my siblings to be forced to go to church like her. They say if we ever do want to go though they wouldn't mine taking us. My mom says I can follow any religion I want .. except for satanism 0_o
