It occurs to me that this kind of shite is the reason I'm an atheist in the first place...
OH, I AM AN IDIOT. I mis-read your post...YES, i agree with you, it is a bit messed up, except parents probably are trying their best from what they know. My grandparents will never know i am an atheist, but even if they did, they would still talk about God with me, and I would just nod and go "mmhmmm," while knowing I am actually not going ot take that advice.
