    That’s basically what happened with me and atheism.

    Worth it, raising atheist kids in a more tolerant place now.

    Exactly. My mom is lost to Trump. From the generation that told me not to jump off a bridge if my friends were, she has no independence from peer pressure. Just Boomer hypocrisy.

    One of the reasons why it’s not as hilariously loserish as nihilistic as it sounds to say that in many ways havings friends is dumb.

    It’s kind of going too far to make a point but probably not as far as lots of people would guess.

    Oh you have a group of friends guess what you will now engage in the following behaviors at the prescribed times or else.

    And we wonder why authenticity is so rare.
