Right, but like that has to be tempered with the understanding that different people think different things about stuff like religion, right? Some acknowledgement that what might be self-evident truth to you is a muddy contradictory mess to others? shrug Iono, people be dumb I guess.

Yeah, my parents were pretty chill, took a kind of 'expose the kids to lots of things and let them make their own minds up' view and didn't even really comment (they asked, obviously, but they were just like 'whatever' upon hearing the explanation) when I told them I had been asked to not come back the church we had been going to. But I do get that this is a big deal for other people, so I don't mean to demean their struggles or anything.
