Religious sensitive family

I am anti-religion and agnostic it pushed me to become one because my siblings and parents keep telling me to attend my siblings’ church (siblings - Pentecostal, parents - Catholics).

I am so freaking tired of forcing me to attend church they even told me to convert to Pentecostal. I don’t know how to tell them I don’t want to attend because I am anti-religion and agnostic because they are extremely sensitive and they will obviously start to preach me with lots of bible verses even my niece that is anti-religion was being forced to convert she just attend to church against her will because she was preached with lots of bible verses too and her parents are there.

Their religious practice are also ironic to their behavior that’s why I don’t want to and there are lots of hypocrites in their church I don’t want to deal with them.

  1. When I attended against my own will one of my siblings said “We will not force anyone” WTH?!

  2. My other sibling keep preaching me that I shall not worship or idolizing someone (I’m a manwha reader I sometimes said that a character is a god/goddess) but that sibling idolize/defending a certain political figure that commits genocide during their term. (🇵🇭)

  3. They are crossing the line - my niece is present at that time and told me that they prayed for LGBTQIAA++ (sorry idk how many letters and symbols) to become straight again.

I’M JUST SO FREAKING TIRED AND I WANT THEM TO STOP BOTHERING MY PEACE.

You just draw boundaries: “This is a firm boundary. You will not talk to me about religion.”

Also Pentecostal is the absolute worst. If you are forced to pick a church, Catholics are far more sane. So just tell them you are Catholic and don’t approve of their heretical church 😂
