Some help, please

[coffeebean!]

I was talking to cry and the idea of bring a book or something would be a good one but I know that I'm the reason my mom wants to take me to church. I'm completely uninterested in it, and if she were to see me reading a book and not paying attention she would get furious.

I mean I respect that people have their beliefs why can't people accept that I don't. ._.

Well, I respect your decision on being agonistic, and I don't know what you should do since I am a total Jesus freak. But I will say this...once you go over to Jesus' side you will never go back. He is amazing, and changed my life. Just remember He loves you. Ok, and I wanna help you, I really do. I've never met someone like you before. I will think on it and get back to you soon! Promise.

Parents suck.

Alright I just talked to my mother and it wasn't pretty.
It started out with me saying that It's not right that she's going to force me to go to church.
She told me not to start that I was going and that was final.
I told her that she needs to learn to respect my opinions, I just don't believe in it.
Her eyes went like this: "o.o" She started to raise her voice.
"YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN GOD?!" "YOU'RE SATANIC?!"
I was like seriously going wtf. I told her that just because I didn't believe in god it didn't mean that I was satanic. I just don't believe in a high power.
Then she started talking about how it's written in the bible, and that someone wrote the bible while it happened, and that it's all happening right now through my very eyes what it said, etc. [I hate it when people start talking like that]

I got very mad but I stayed calm and serious while she was raising her voice. I told her that I just don't believe in it and that she needs to respect that. It's just a 'belief' I told her. She's really mad. She said that she's going to tell my father so I can talk to him about it. I'm not sure if it's going to be good or bad. My dad is somewhat understand but he's a strong believer and I'm freaked out. It's like my mother threatens me with my dad when all goes wrong.

Too be honest my mom isn't the brightest. She says things that bother me and I tell her to respect my opinions and she says she does, but she doesn't. She told me I was going to church and that was final. And she didn't want to talk about this anymore. At this moment I really don't want to face my father with this...

This is seriously aggravating. I'm okay with talking to my parents about this kind of stuff, I just talked to my mom about it but she freaked and started calling me satanic. x.x

JJH: Humans suck.

[coffeebean!]

try going to church and try to learn about god

I don't want to learn about god.
I don't believe in a high power.

[Now that I've said that about 20 times...]

What I would do is completely immature and totally reflects things I do in real life situations.

Go to church calmly. When you get to the front door, say you forgot something in the car, get the keys, run off, and lock yourself in.

OR

Scream really loudly and pout and run away from your family and hide somewhere.

 

[JJH]

Or, show them that you mean business. Bite your thumb at your mother!

Eh.

I'd be murdered after wards.

[coffeebean!]

I've tried believing in the past, and I don't.
It doesn't make sense to me, alright?

I don't need 'try to believe' that's not what I'm asking for here.
My mind is made up, I do not believe.
I just need help with telling my parents and confronting them.
They're going to FORCE me to go to church.

I forgot to include that part...

Do you have any nearby relatives that don't care for church? Or family friends? 'Cause you could always get them to talk to your parents...

The only other way if your parents are being unreasonable is to anger them into not taking you any further.

Nope. No family nearby and no family friends that would understand.
I wouldn't want to anger them...I think I've already done that. And they're not taking 'no' for an answer.

 

[Jarrrad]

Tell him " its my life, stop getting into the way of it, and i had no choice to be baptized."

 

[JamesBertie]

That's a lot of persistence on their part.
=\

The only thing i can think of now is matching their stubbornness with your own.

You could just sneak out of the house before church, or lock you door if it has one, just try to keep a dialog with your parents. They just don't have the right to force you into something you really don't want to do, they can try but force is where the line is drawn.

I really can't think of any solutions that wouldn't make them horribly angry. Parents never like the point where they realize they can't control you especially on something like religion. Really they just want what they think is best, and unfortunately it is on thhe type of thhing that is just as impossible to prove wrong as it is to prove right.

I know.
And the worst part is I confronted my mom and now have to confront my dad too.
