they're often quite spiritual or study 'energies'

hmm

whenever I try to debate them they say it's too heavy a topic

my parents typically dont like abstract topics and I like them a lot, so I often don't get to really hear their views and adapt my argument

If you want to talk about that stuff with them, don't come at them too strongly

yeah my parents often get mad that I keep arguing when someone upset

they tend to be more focused on feelings while I am focused on a logical conclusion

anyways so most kids my age get their ideology from their parents

around my age or a little older some strart to rebel and have conflicting view points just for the sake of conflicting view points

Your parents are grappling with their innate spirituality, or desire for higher purpose, without the support that they need from organized religion. I don't blame them for rejecting the churches either, they have become skewed and amoral in the recent decades especially

very well put

I had a friend in high school who I would debate religion with

I couldn't grasp the concept of believing in something that should not exist according to worldly logic

I think the best way to describe it to myself back then would be that one can make a conscious choice to believe in something immaterial in order to accomplish some material end.

like embracing some measured amount of insanity in order to escape the nihilistic pull of pure logic

it's the beginning of the end for Trump

He can't do anything right

He bought loads of people free lunch and they get mad at him

Yet if Obama did it he would be amazing

The like to dislike ratio is amazing

@Deleted User that would be similar to how I am now

Since when I was 14, 2 days before the 2016 election. I support Clinton because everyone at school did.
