Fresh out of a religious debate with my parents

In conclusion I found out...

My mom believes in evolution, says science isn't fact, is ignorant when it comes to her own beliefs, and cries when proven wrong. Also, she damns her own son to hell for not believing in one. She also thinks that the internet is a source for atheism and is thinking of cancelling our plan and going back to dial-up "if that is what it takes for me to see the truth".

My dad plays the card of using a close relatives near-death experience with God and then calls you a horrible person for stating the fact that she was a delusional old woman. Also, he has great grip strength and knows people who make weak walls. He threw me, literally, into one.

They also want me to read the Bible when they refuse to read God Is Not Great or The God Delusion because "It wouldn't be fair".

Just needed to rant about this for a little bit... Still, neither of them could refute a simple Mumford and Sons line. "Who are you to say that your truth is better than mine?"
