[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 647859, member: 18516"] Mine is most definately an athiest. He was raised in a Christian home with Christian values. We attended church every week as a family. I agree with those that have commented about submitting to an authority, whether it's God, or Higher Power, or a Police Officer, Teacher. My difficult child has always rebelled against authority. He has also been very ugly to me about my faith, telling me I'm stupid, naive, blind, clueless, etc..... Now here's the kicker, he gets upset that we don't invite him to come stay with us for Christmas!! First, he is not welcome in our home - can't trust him. Second, why would I invite someone into my home to "celebrate" something they don't believe in. He knows I take Christmas very seriously, for me it's not about the presents under the tree. It's about celebrating the birth of Jesus. Third, he has no money to travel the 1000 miles to our home - I'm not going to pay his way. I accept the fact that he believes the way he does. I don't like it but accept it. Now that he's had the epiphany that he's an "Indigo Child" will only confirm to him even more that he is above all. [/QUOTE]
