Coming out to you family
It's not something I personally had that much of a problem with, but it's difficult for some.

Freedom of speech, freedom from faith.
About this blog
People die for it. People kill for it. They ignore fact to support it. They champion ignorance to defend it. And worst of all they teach their children to do the same.
Faith is a disease; a dysfunction of the mind and of society as a whole. Faith is a dangerous irrationality that has cost millions of lives and will cost millions more. In a world in which we hear so much about respecting others beliefs this blog is a stand against that idiocy. Faith deserves no respect. Faith deserves to be cured.

For me, it wasn't personally a big deal, fortunately.
My dad wasn't exactly thrilled about it, but given the fact that I was the only one of his three sons who was a responsible person, it was just something he had to grudgingly accept.
Sometimes my mom would insist that I was still a Catholic. She would say "You're a non-practicing Catholic." I would reply "No I'm not. A non-practicing Catholic is someone who still nominally believes but doesn't go to church. I don't believe in it at all."
Then she would mention that I was baptized when I was infant. But I would tell her that yeah, I was just an infant. I was not aware of what was going on and some priest pouring water on my head does not compel me to commit to anything.
This is pretty much why I said nothing when I was a kid. I had a step-mother from hell, who would have ridiculed me beyond belief (pun intended)
1) I'm, um, suspicious. Looks staged.
2) With a family like that, no wonder the kid doesn't believe.
Yes, I thought this was staged too. The acting wasn't bad though.
I never had to come out because I was an atheist toddler, lol. My dad tried to give me a Christian coloring book and I refused to take it.
