[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a question for the respectful atheist, however I am an atheist as well, so all are invited to answer.

Why do I resist telling my religious family members that I am an atheist?  I never took my children to church, so that's a big hint.  But we live far away from them, so it's hardly ever come up.

Why am I afraid of upsetting them, when they have no problem sending me religious books and talking to my now grown up children about religion?

Because you are not so sure of your believes? If you are confident that you found the truth and the path of life in atheism, you will be shouting about it. Stating your believes not going to upset anyone, as long as you not going to push your agenda on them. Being afraid to state your believe is immature.

Are you offended or upset about receiving those books? Just politely ask them not to send it to you. If your kids are grown up, they can choose for themselve if they want to talk to their relatives about religion or not, dont get in the middle. [/quote]
