I do not get on well at all with the very religious. All of my closest family, my wife, and her immediate family, plus the vast majority of all my friends are atheists or at minimum, non-believer agnostic types. We all hate Trump and RWers to the bone. I look on with horror at what many on this site go through with their families. I would never speak again to a family member who supports white power vermin (especially as I am racially mixed and a lesbian, and they would be advocating for me never existing or for me being enslaved or imprisoned or murdered).
