For example, if you are atheist or agnostic has someone in your family threatened to ex-commicate you if you didn't side with their beliefs?
I hear about families doing this all the time....especially families with big traditions.

Some friends, yes.
Keep it moving, doesn't bother me. -
I pretty sure it has. But I don't give a ? . When ever I tell people I believe in ? but not jesus. They always come with some bible ? .

I don't know, maybe. I don't normally get into all of that with people. But, if I did, that's how it's suppose to be.

Not sure. I'd laugh in their face tho.

nope, but no ? give if it ever happens.
i present bible nuts with facts and current events to back up my disbelief in a book written thousands of years ago -
Family hasn't really learned yet but suspicious though. My uncle has his views and he is big on Dr. John Henrik Clarke and supports his views which I'm leaning towards with my learning and reading.

No. I don't speak about ? like that outside of my immediate family.... and my immediate family is too close to let differences come between us.
-
nope, not at all
-
No I haven't.
I have my beliefs, but I only judge others on their character and how they treat me.
I don't have a Heaven, Hell, or jail cell to put anyone in so who am I to try to subtract someone from my life based on what they do or don't believe. -
nope,

My dad just says "As long as you know you're going to hell then there's nothing I can do to stop ya, you went to church and know the bible. Pass the salt please."
Otherwise no.
