Yes, I can! My family is very cool...my parents are Buddhists, my brother is atheist, and I am Christian, the progressive kind. I feel very comfortable discussing my faith, but I have never been placed in the position where I felt it necessary...I work, pay my taxes, help out family and friends when I can, give to charity, the same things my family do, Christian or not. All faiths in that way, to me, have similar qualities that converge with love of family and community, common sense morality, generosity of spirit, etc..

Hey, where did Revelife find a picture of my family?

My father and older sister are devout Catholics.  My younger sister got sucked into university level, leftist academia and is an athiest.

Young sister is only on speaking terms with Pops.  The very idea that we are old-style Christians is loathsome to her.

Older sis and Pops love to hear me go on about Saint Thomas Aquinas.  The way he melds reason with faith satisfies our very natural spiritual hunger.

I am amazed at their home-spun wisdom and devotion to family and community.

I can talk to my father about my agnosticism (we're both agnostic), but I can't talk to the rest of my family, who are all Catholic.  It doesn't really bug me, because I know that if I did talk to them, I would just end up getting harassed about it by my grandma.

My faith seems to be the only thing I can talk to my family about. I've made a lot of mistakes in my life, that they know of, but the one thing that's never changed is my faith. I've always been strong in my faith and it seems to be the only thing I can talk to my parents about to make them feel proud. My family and I are all cradle Catholics, and they are always talking about religion. Everyone in the world somehow relates to religion and sitting down for dinner turns into a biblical or somehow religious conversation. I have a lot a couple disagreements with Catholic beliefs but my parents and I always debate about them. If I ever feel like my faith is failing, I know I can always go to my parents and talk about it. In fact, I don't think I would go anywhere else.

my mom, yes.  everyone else, no... they are far too conservative and ignorant.  it doesn't really bother me.  i'm an adult now and don't need my family's approval on anything, least of all my beliefs.

No. Mom and Dad are Catholic; they raised me that way, but God kept pursuing me, and I was saved at 17, baptized at 18. I love talking about Jesus and what He is doing and has done in my life. Dad thinks I joined a cult; Mom just doesn't care.

I can talk easily to the believers in my family.  The athiests want to mock me and don't want to hear about God. It's pretty much the same way it is with non-family.

I am very comfortable talking with my family about my faith.  My parents and I disagree on a few things, but we know where each other stands and love each other.     My sister and I disagree on everything since she is an unbeliever and currently not receptive to the Gospel.   Hence, I speak little to her about Christianity so as not to uncharitablly force it on her.

My dad died when I was a teenager, but he had always said we could go to any church except Jewish, Catholic, and Mormon.  My mom didn't speak to me for a week when I told her I was joining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, but later, after she had seen the change it brought in me (which was like night and day) she became a big supporter and always had good things to say about the church.  As for my dad, well he would roll over in his grave knowing that he now has two Mormon daughters and one Catholic! LOL!
