Lately I've been struggling on what to do with my family now that I've lost my faith in god/don't believe anymore. My family is Christian based. My mom, dad, etc go to church and always tells me god related stuff to keep me "in tuned/motivated". I haven't been to church in weeks now and I come up with excuses on why I didn't go when they call me to see how my day went.
My family has supported me my whole life. They've really been there for me during some low points in my life. I'm a bit scared that if I tell them and they act different, I'll be alone. I don't know what I would do without the support of my family. They mean that much to me.

I'm somewhat down that road now. Except, I believe in God and just don't know what path to follow. I would love to get my spiritual side back. However, it's difficult and I mostly feel alone so

Boy are u wack ass ngrs in for a HUGE GODDAMNED SURPRISE.Sorry toit for you.
I think it's kind of silly when people say "bless you" after sneezing and use phrases involving god or preach or talk about praying and heaven and hellit seems like people want something to believe in to get by with the boredom of life. Now I don't have all the answers like sway would but it is possible that there isn't a higher power. Also possible that religion is one of the biggest money generators next to the prison system and secret society of elitists and bankers which all tie into each other.
Assuming you're an adult...move out (preferably far enough where your parents won't be over all the time) and get your own place.
One of the best things about being grown and having your own pad is that you don't have to go to church if you don't want to.

I've been living by myself for 5 years now. It's just my mom and dad always call me to see how my day is going. On sundays when they call, they ask if I went to church. The church I was going to was my dad's church. He just now started going back after 2 years off due to work, (then it became laziness) so he's been calling like "I didn't see you in church".Assuming you're an adult...move out (preferably far enough where your parents won't be over all the time) and get your own place.

I really wanted to believe. Things just didn't add up for me. It's tough because there's so many what if's when you feel alone.I'm somewhat down that road now.

Ah, that kinda sucks.
I stopped going the instant I left for college and moved into a dorm, and I'd just give them the
anytime I was asked about church and they eventually stopped asking. But then again, I live a few hours away from my mom and in a different state than my dad, so it's not like we'd be at the same church anyway. Though it has been an issue with a girl I've dated.
Maaane, keep that shyt to yourself irl with family
you don't need them problems
just pretend
low key throw some shade at the hypocrisy and danger of religion whenever you can do it safely
oh you know what could work for that
tell them you are on an existential quest for god and you are gonna try other religions
over time you can tell them you found God inside your heart and so you just gon' skip church all together
just don't tell them you atheist or agnostic cold turkey

The best decision for you is to sit down with your family and talk about how you feel. If they're truly Christians they should not have a problem with your decision to not believe. I don't see why your family will stop loving you if you tell them the truth instead of lying to them. Your family might be disappointed with your decision, but they should understand, and leave it in God's hand. They shouldn't be judging you. Only God judges. Just sit down with your family and talk to them.
