to believe in God and go to Church.
Talked to her already ... but nothing made a difference. How the hell can I do this? |

Well you have to look at it from her point of view. She's a mother and I think this could just be something out of love. If she's christian(I'm assuming she might be from your post) then she's just trying to make sure you're safe. In her belief system this means taking christ as your lord and saviour. But if you don't do this you're leading yourself straight to an eternity of torment in Hell. She just wants you to be safe and taken care of.
But while those are good things for a mother to do, it's not good that she's trying to force you to join a religion with beliefs that you don't agree with. But to her she sees nothing wrong with this. She doesn't want you to make the wrong descision so its not a bad thing in her eyes to try and pound some "sense" into your head. The best you can do is let her know that you respect her beliefs and her right to choose whatever belief system she chooses. But in doing that, you would like that she does the same for you. I doubt this will make much of a difference and you might have already said something similar. If after all this she still continues to try and force you to believe in her religion just walk away if you can. If you can't, just ignore her. She'll get mad but you've done all you can do. Also, don't lie about your beliefs to please her. It might seem like the "easy" route but all it'll do is tell your mother that with a little persistence anyone can make someone believe what is "right" and that it is perfectly fine to do what she's doing. Good luck... ![]() |
