RE: #nocomfortzone The shame

in #nocomfortzone • 7 years ago

Thanks Anj (if I may call you that)

I'm currently in Ibadan and my aunt is on my case. I doubt if I can ever fully come out for now. Everyone I know in real life is either a Christian or at worse, a freethinker. To think I have no belief in anything spiritual or a home eternal kinda turn people off.

Add that to the bigoted misconception that atheists have no morals and you see while I rather creep in the shadows. Already, my aunt is threatening to call my parents to have them cut off my support and school fees.

Thanks for the luck though. When I become fully independent, I think it's gonna come in really handy.

Cheers

    Lol. Of course you can call me Anj. It's my name :D

    Lol @ freethinker. What's bad about those? hahah

    Ah, if you're at risk of financial ruin then it's best to keep that quiet. You're right. When you don't need their money, and if you feel supported emotionally by other friends, coworkers, etc., then you can be who you really are.

    Yes, the morals. That is the biggest thing I come up against too. They think we can't be moral without a god. I think it's more moral to act in a good way without the threat of eternal torture over my head.

    Thanks for the thoughts :D
