What should be done about this religous situation?

Well, according to the bible, it is the parent’s responsibility to take their children to church. Although they can not make their kids believe, they can witness and try. For the Lord told us to go out unto the world and share the gospel.

as a christian anyone living in my house should follow my house rule’s.We as parent’s (save by the blood and following GOD’S WILL)have a responsiblity to GOD to teach our kid his will,destiny and purpose for there life so they can teach there kids and so on.Kid’s today have no valve or respect for adults or authority. Parent as much as it hurt’s stand by GOD’S word no matter how far apart your kid is from GOD and stay faithful to GOD and at the end even if your child is lost to the world at least they no that you made a stand and didn;t compromise GOD’S WILL. I know cause I went through this with my oldest son and now he’s married looking for a church.I made that tough decision and GOD blessed it cause it was for his GLORY.

Look, if you dont believe, then you’re walking into a building with a lot of people sprouting on about their beliefs. Alright, so if you attend the same church as compasion I kinda feel sorry for you, however, really at the end of the day what do you lose by going and making your parents happy? Yes, I know, your at an age where you have to prove something, but seriously, the adult thing to do is just simply figure out whether it is causing any harm, and if it isnt, then why not? When you’re older, you can do whatever you want. Until then, keep the peace and just pretend your taking a class on christianity. Dont expect your parents to come around though. 10 years and I’m still waiting for them to get it. They still think I’m going to grow out of it. But I no longer have a need to prove anything to them. They have their beliefs and I have mine.

Can’t you just go to church to make your Mom happy? Just sit there and enjoy the choir and after try to understand what the minister’s sermon is all about. Really, it’s an education and you will learn something. Nobody says you have to believe but you never know, you might even meet some new people and become friends. That’s not so bad, is it?

I think it would be best if you spoke with your parents about the fact that you do not share the same beliefs. Explain to her that there are plenty of people who are “Christians” who don’t go to church because going to church doesn’t make you any more of a Christian than standing in a garage makes you a car.

What balletflats said ^

I think 16 is a good age to decide if, when and where you go to church. Until then, mama’s will be done.

I think that since they aren’t yet 18, so until then they go by your rules.

They should decide since it’s their life and not their parents.
