My Beliefs

This morning I showed my mom my Human Paleontology book and explained that it was a long class on evolution, to which my step-dad asked me if I really believed in that stuff. I said yes because we have proof that the Earth and Homo sapiens have for a lot longer than the Bible has claimed. We then had a debate on creationism vs evolution and towards the end, my step-dad tells my mom, “I think your son is an Athiest,” to which I replied, “Yes I am, I believe in science and not God.” The entire conversation pretty much ended right then and there. My mom hasn’t looked at me since and has been in her room for the past hour. We were both raised on Catholic views, so it is understandable that she is very upset.
