[quote=Anonymous]I don't see the issue as about religion. I see it as what kind of behavior are you willing to tolerate. It doesn't matter what OP's religious beliefs are, she she remain silent while MIL disparages groups of people that are different from her. For 'Christian', substitute 'black', 'Asian', 'Jew' or 'girls'. Does it change the acceptability of the statement? FWIW, I don't believe I need to communicate what my religious beliefs are with anyone other than my DH. As so notably posited by theologian Roger Williams, you can't compel a person to believe. Their conscience is their own. I shouldn't feel or be compelled to share my conscience but should, instead, in words and deed live a moral life. If OP's MIL doesn't believe atheists (or blacks, Jews, girls) can be moral people, OP should argue the ridiculous of that statement. OP's own religious views are irrelevant to the argument.[/quote]
