Updated Introduction to Why Come Out As An Atheist?
update to previous Introduction

    Please read my previous Introduction before you begin this so you can see a real world transition taking place...

    As you know, my previous introduction stated that I had yet to inform my immediate family about my nonbelief in a supreme being -- or more specifically, the Roman Catholic God my family puts their entire faith in.  On November 29, 1998, my mother inadvertainly came across an ICQ messge to my girl friend concerning my nonbelief in a god.  Needless to say, all hell broke loose.  I'll save you the long story, but I must say, it has now been over two months since that night, and things are much, much better.  My advice -- just admit to.  It's a whole lot better in the long run.
