[quote=Anonymous]I am 45 years old, and after almost 3 decades of study, introspection, and commitment to multiple congregations, I have decided I am not a Christian. I am married to a Catholic, and we are raising our children in that faith. But I have found peace in the UU Church. I explained this to my mother. She said that she will "disown" me (her words), and that I was a horrible mother. She said she had nothing more to say to me. (Also threw in a couple of comments about me not respecting the president, and how I am an ivory tower atheist.) Do I mend fences, and if so, how do I go about it? I think that religion is a personal matter, but also familial, so I understand her being upset. I respect all people, and their beliefs and rights when it comes to who/what they pray to. This is a hard time for me right now. My mother hasn't returned my calls in 4 days. She did send me an article from Fox, but that is it. [/quote]
