Help!

I'm not sure what to do, or where to post this. I live with my grandparents, and they are in deep into christianity. I'm Wiccan and so is my father, but my they found out, now they keep giving lecture after lecture about how I worship the devil. I don't even belive in the devil. But, I have to finish HS here, that's another 3yrs. What do I do??????

Well, you could always tell them off, but more often than not that results in double the shit. Or you could grin and bear it. Just make sure you have an outlet so you don't explode in the wrong person's face. Or you tell them, with all sincerity, how you feel sad that they're following a path that goes nowhere.

It's a shitty situation.

Realize that they honestly are under the impression that they're helping, and just keep your beliefs quiet.

It sucks, but it is their house, so you should respect them. Practice your religion in your room and be respectful to them about it. When/if they try to discuss religion, just politely tell them you're not comfortable discussing it.

You can always tell them (politely) that they seem to have some misconceptions about your beliefs and offer to explain your beliefs to them. If they still thing you worship the devil then there really is nothing you much that you can do other then trying to avoid discussing the topic.

All are good ideas, but I did just do it in my room, and they still treated it like I was worshipping the devil. I don't know. Maybe I should just pretend to be someone else for a while. I know that they won't listen if I do explain my belifes. Fuck! Thier old christians!

Sucks mate, oh well, if they're old enough, you might not have to wait three years
