Faithful Witness: "Am I an apostate?"
Of course you are. Anyone who pals around with apostates is one himself.

Simon:
Show us the official rules of your religion or shut up.
They'll simply state that it's in their Bible and it is. It would be best for us to show her the rules in the Bible that she wishes to ignore. Quote a bible verse that they definitely won't abide by like the one in Deuteronomy which states:
28 If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, 29 he shall pay her father fifty shekels of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives. Deuteronomy 22:28-29 New International Version
Once quoted she should be asked if she would give out a marriage license in such a case. When she says no ask her what gives her the authority to pick and choose which Bible verses she wants to abide with and which ones she doesn't. Accuse her of hypocrisy for not following the whole Bible.

fulltimestudent:
"Which leads us to ask why is it that these fanatical christians think this way?"
Fundamentalist Christians tend to be politically conservatives. Conservatives, as part of their inborn temperament, do not care about people outside of their circle of family and friends nor do they care about the environment in general outside of their own backyards. They have neither a social conscience nor a sense of general responsibility for their actions and thus resent anyone telling them that something must be done on this or that problem.
Once the irritating "We must do something about this" is communicated to them they spin forth a thousand and one excuses and falsehoods to justify themselves.

An ice extent graph showing the year 2015, to this date, in black. The measurements are in millions of square kilometers. This is in full context of the 35 year period of satellite measurements. 1980 is in blue indicating a much higher amount of ice back then. 2012 is an outlier year with a super melt.
There are fluctuations in the year by year melt but the general trend, decade by decade, not 3 years like Perry showed, shows a massive shrink.
It's going to keep melting until the whole ice cap disappears during summertime. When that happens (estimated between 2020-2030) it will have a major impact on our weather since open ocean affects the weather differently than an ocean covered with ice.
Look forward to intensified floods and snowstorms (while, for a couple of decades, it's still cold enough to snow).

I don't know how old you are; I'm assuming you're a teenager by your name.
If you're so inclined, get an education in something you really like. Your education will work well with a fade since it will take up most of your time. Your mother might not like it but at least she won't feel like you've gone apostate.
Such an education will put you in a position to make friends that share your interests.

The Greatest Paradox
by Perry innow that i have been a born again christian for 10 years, i see things that just boggles my mind.
like this: we all spent untold hours in the field service telling people (mostly christians) about the paradise earth.
that was the reason we were at their door.
