[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a difference between not talking about your personal views and just being an ass.  OP's mother is being disrespectful both to OP in not actually defining atheist and in arguing with OP's child.  Believers don't get a special pass on rudeness, and it's just plain rude to argue with someone's beliefs.  If OP's mother isn't capable of saying "well, I believe..." then she can be asked not to talk about it at all.  It's also one thing to say, "when the Bible talks about a 'day,' I believe it's not supposed to be a literal day" and saying, "no, it's not!" to a child.  OP's mother sounds pretty childish herself, too insecure to allow for anything outside her world view, including the reality that whether she personally thinks atheists are deluded, words have meanings that aren't negotiable.

Boy, you're reading a lot into OP's post.  What a hostile screed.[/quote]
