perfectly aware of what I do... thanks

so tired of worrying what my actions being circulated to my parents or any other family member finding out. It's just stupid, and I'm annoyed and fed up with it. I realize they are looking out for me and that's nice. But please, for my sanity, there is no need for you to report it back to my parents. I'm twenty years old for God's sake. I am aware of the consequences of my actions. I know the difference between right and wrong.

freedom of 'no' religion?

lately I've heard a lot of lawsuits and issues that come up about the freedom of religion and how the atheists are getting their way about dominating the race. My mom's views are simple: "If you are an atheist and you value nothing in religious symbols or artifacts then why should it bother you so much?" Someone complained to a Costco employee that they didn't want to hear Christmas music. And now I watched a news story about the atheist organization in my state making a protest and not participate in the silence of prayer. Good then, if you don't believe in a God then the more power to yourself but you don't have to make a big deal about it. This country was found on basic rights and the freedom of religion is one of them.
