Don't worry, my parents who kicked me out for having been outed as a lesbian always remember to tell me they either were forced to do it because 'they love me so much and don't want me to end in hell' or just unwillingly admit their religion is a hive mind that instantly rejects fiercely anything that's out of the norm.
Their take has always been that I hurt THEM and if there's ever going to be any kind of true reconciliation, it's me who has to ask for forgiveness.
It has now been 26 years and I haven't found it in myself to say 'sorry I forced you to kick me out '.
@aamurusko79 🫂You may not need to hear this from an internet stranger, but you didn't deserve that at all. Also, the sheer "no u" of their argument is infuriating. It's such a bullying thing to say to someone
Thanks! It has been a long time so it isn't such a sore spot, but at times I have to give the topic a poke when the topic of 'we love you but we hate the core essence of you' of religion comes up.

It seems to happen with religious people that even if you aren't directly interacting with them, they're offended by things shared that are about atheism but they'll still try to convert your. 🤦🏻♀️

Your inability to apologise to them for your transgression will limit your personal growth. Consider forgiveness.
(I am absolutely being sarcastic. Eff them.)

I find that burying one of them solves half the problem.
