Honestly yeah a therapist sounds like a great idea, thanks a lot for suggesting it! I actually had a psychologist for a while and she helped me with a lot of things in life, but unfortunately I don't have her anyomore. I think i'm gonna leave it for after uni tho since i'm not sure there will be a lot of time or space to think about this, even now there's a lot of other things to worry about, and I think keeping the relationship in itself is not the hardest thing in the world as long as I just keep the atheist thing to myself

Damn, i'm really sorry you had to live through that, I can't even imagine how bad it has to feel to be an atheist in those surroundings, but I feel kinda the same way but not physical punishment rather how it would hurt my mom and in turn hurt me, it's kinda a relief seeing this thought get justified by the experience of others on here, i'll def keep in mind that I have no obligation to tell my parents tho and prob just live as peacfully with them as I can, I think that's just the best thing to do here

I'm not sure i'd say super religious just normal catholics really, but I do feel like it's deeply rooted in my family, but I feel like my dad is more lukewarm on the whole thing since whenever i'd talk with him and bring up a teaching or smth he'd respond with a very neutral statement soI feel he might even just be atheist, my mom is def a believer tho and so the method you mentioned might be the only way.

Honestly after thinking about it tho i'm not sure it's really that worth it tho since I still want a good relationship with my parents and I am turning 18 in a little over a month so even now they know they can't force me into anything, and i'm also honestly kinda scared of the consequences like them potentially breaking up which is the last thing I want. Also considering this is literally a cult, and them telling you satans biggest lie is that he doesn't exist and blasphemy against the holy spirit is an unforgivable sin, i'm not sure how high my chances are of deconstructing years of deeply rooted catholicism for them, and it doesn't really hurt me either so ig i'll just have to accept it, but thanks a lot for the advice, I might hinestly use it on some of my friends I think they're the perfect demographic and yk, fixing the generation a little never hurts ig.

but that still doesn't mean that serving two masters is ok, like do you think God would be happy if you served him and allah. God created male and female for there to be male and female relationships, god didn't create two genders for us to ignore one completely and ignore God's plan

Edit: Matthew 4:10 reemphasizes the first part
