[quote="gameld"]this is not too terribly uncommon. a lot of people who become honest christians often find themselves assaulted by their family to be just about anything else.
also, recently, bill maher came out with a movie called "religulous" in which he attempts to point out the foolishness and worthlessness of religion (all religions but especially christianity, closely followed by judaism and islam)./quote]
Yes, this is exactly what I mean. It's interesting, because I get the sense that if I'd decided to be Jewish or Muslim, I'd have had similar reactions. The only difference is that their first reaction would have been, "Hey, that's cool!" before deciding I was a religious nut.
What's odd is that I've been a Christian for nearly 20 years now, but they've only started working on me in the last two or three.
