I understand your desire for privacy in your room.
But then I'm thinking: unless it's an ugly painting, why not let your parents have it in your room?
It gives them piece of mind.
Obviously, it's your room, so it's your choice.
It's not ugly, but I find religious icons creepy and I don't want any in my room.
I can't understand why they force Christianity on me. How does it benefit them? They don't even seem to believe in heaven or hell, they are simply Christians by tradition. Religion has nothing to do with logic/reason/science.
I forgot to mention that I have a little sister(NT, 8 years old) whom I love very much. She was indoctrinated, which is cruel and heartbreaking. I hate it when she witnesses our discussions on religion. I won't tell her the truth, as that would only cause trouble. I'm sure that one day she will figure out the truth on her own.
Also, I hate it when Christians confuse atheism and Satanism.
I think the Atheism thing is confused with Satanism because if one is Atheist then there is no chance of them entering heaven according to Christian beliefs - some believe that if one doesn't believe in God then they believe in the opposite which is Satan. Honestly, before coming to an Aspie website and meeting some Athiests, I also believed this. I just had this talk with my Aspie friend - I asked if he was Atheist or Agnostic and he said he was Agnostic (even though he was brought up Catholic). Him being Agnostic was a little bit of a relief for me because it told me he still has an open mind and a chance at entering heaven.
