I do the same with my parents. I trash them with evidence. I throw it in their face and I won't stop until they wake up. The relationship has gone terrible but I do not care, because I know what is coming. I will not tolerate their gullible ignorance, their silly counter arguments that have no intellectual basis. I will continue to trash them until the very end, no mercy, never.

Truth will prevail.

So basically what you're saying is that your parents are stupid and that you are not? That they are incapable of making decisions about their own lives and that you need to make them for them? That your parents are not worth a bit of compassion or patience?
Everyone! Quickly read dadgad's post history so that we may all know the absolute truth that he brings! Don't be as ignorantly gullible as his stupid, stupid parents.
What a worthless and dangerous post that was.

If dadgad were in any way representative of the overall frame of mind on this planet I would launch the nukes myself.

I know what you mean.. my mom is the same way.

She is the epitome of an obedient servant to the system, the exact way TPTB want her to be. She laps up the View, Joy Behar, Anderson Pooper, etc.. and never questions anything the MSM/Govt tells her.

One time we talked about 9/11, and after explaining to her a good amount of the evidence, she finally lost it and said something that sums up the way all sheep are... "Okay okay!! I'm sure you're right, I just don't want to think about it!!".. hahahaha... I couldn't believe that. She just completely admitted what so many fail to even realize about themselves.

Look, I know what a lot of you are saying about "let her be, she's happy" and all that, but I empathize with OP. It's really hard to watch someone you love so much be lied to about such important things and never even realize it.

bahaha my mom says the same stuff, she says that because she used to question too, but she realized questionings is worthless because in the end u cant ever prove it nor can u change anything, so she sees the problems in her life (which im sure she mentions when u try to talk about it) she has actual problems and responsibilities. she has no time to worry about that other stuff, she may say get off the internet and pick up ur bible, cause ur failing classes, she thinks ur on drugs, she doesnt want u believing everything u read. But she cant be worrying about nonsense stuff shes got a life. Im sure you smoke weed. well ur mom isnt in 7th grade anymore and has # to do. shes realized in her life experience that the bible is the right way and the only thing u can rely on, so she wants u to improve ur self there and stop trying to save the world. shes only watching out for you and for some reason u think ur smarter then her. its funny how arrogant we get wen were kids.

Your Mom is what I would class as a religious nut. These people are usually pretty harmless but they become semi-annoying when they start trying to force their childish superstitions on to others. That's the time to start ignoring them.

Trying to tell a rabid bible-basher that what they believe is rubbish usually gets you nowhere, you just come up against this 'wall' of faith. They will blindly believe the backward nonsense no matter how much reason (scientific or otherwise) you try to use. It literally is like banging your head against a brick wall.

Trying to educate them about fringe science and the paranormal is like trying to teach a caveman to use a computer. It really isnt worth the effort.

The next time your mom tells you to read the bible tell her to keep her beliefs to herself if she isnt interested in yours. It's typical Christian arrogance to assume what they believe is right and anything else is just wrong.

Your preaching to your mom about project bluebeam, because of her typical reaction to a hollywood movie, and you say shes brainwashed? hahaha, give me a break

Stop being a dick to your mom. Shes a good lady

Not everybody cares to preoccupy themselves with probably false conspiracy theories.

sounds to me like you were the one taking things to seriously, and that she was the one kidding around. You just have to learn to let go, let her be happy. Theres no explaining the things you think you know, for the sake of disputing a film that she knows is little more then a film

Did you even read anything beyond the OP?
Silend has stated that he is himself a believing Christian. He has said nothing that makes his mother sound like a "religious nut". I imagine that you don't see the inherent "'wall' of faith" in your own post, but it's just arrogance to assume what you believe is right.
I guess it's unknown to me what you mean by "fringe science" and "the paranormal" but I can't think of much classically defined under those terms that is scientifically proven. Thus your faith in them is no more reasonable or unreasonable than anyone elses faith in their unprovable beliefs.

...Might you know about the experiments with Coco the monkey or any other similar studies? Something tells me this wouldn't be as fruitless as you make out.

don't worry, my parents too are brainwashed by the television, its nothing I can really do, its out of my reach, I need to focus on myself first

Maybe if you learned how to speak, read and write in English, your mom would listen to you more. Just a suggestion.

Seriously, I rarely ever post but reading the amount of posts attacking this 13 year old kid for his spelling and bad punctuation made me angry as hell. To all of you who had nothing to contribute to the thread but to tell him to learn to spell, ever thought he might not be from your same damn country? There is a whole world out there that doesn't speak English, ever heard of that? The guy is 13, and he already knows quite a bit of a language that is not his native one, and that probably makes him actually ahead of you.

I'm not from an English-speaking country, either. I taught myself English. I'm 21 now, and that kid's English is much better than mine when I was his age. So next time you start attacking a kid for his bad English, maybe you arrogant morons could actually try to make an effort to remember that your country is not the world.

What makes you think he is not a native English speaker? And since when does not speaking English negate the ability to capitalize and punctuate correctly? When I was thirteen I could speak, read and write in English and German just fine. It's called attention to detail.

what the hell is wrong with this site

i read the ops post, and replied to it

i then went and read a few of the other posts and its nothing but bashing this kid, i dont know what happened between page 1 and the rest but when did ats become so hostile towards everyone

i know its been ilke this for years now but it wasnt always this way, when i 1st found this place when it 1st started it was a great place with intelligent people sharing info

now its just flaming, arguing nonsense to a point it looks like people take positions just to be able to argue and sound ignorant

@ OrphenFire: Maybe because the amount of basic mistakes he made and his general use of the language screams "Not a native English speaker"? I thought it was actually very obvious from his very first post. And 13 year olds from non-English-speaking countries don't have to fully master the English language before they post on here to satisfy people like you.

Exactly.

Ok Silend....So you and your Mum don't see eye to eye on stuff....... trust me it only gets more frustrating as you go through these growing pains(becoming an adult) but I will leave you with a very important thought, you must never forget this.
The reason your Mum is an unchanging force in your life is because sometimes you'll need a ROCK, however different her concepts are she will always be your Rock in times of trouble.
When I was your age and a few years more 18 to be exact, I felt the very same as you but I left home to live with my older sister for 2 years. I am now 43, life passes by so fast as soon as you reach adulthood and 3 years ago my mother passed on........... having those 2 years now would be a bonus........
Take every moment you have with your mother however different your opinions are.....one day you'll realise these differences were nothing but quirks and find yourself quoting her word for word in nostalgic memory as that is all you have left.
Agree to disagree but don't waste the time you have.......one day...........You'll miss her.

You are right. I am radical! Furious and radical. Because I see what is unfolding and I hold evidence. Solid evidence, documented facts. Stuff that the media wont show us and therefor does not reach my family. So I will force them to look at it and think about it. I will trash them until they at least read it.

I dont waste my time on charity, I will hit hard, because that is needed. i love my family dearly and they need to know what will happen. There is no denying what is unfolding in front of our eyes. Only suckers like you try to rationalize this.

Goodbye and wish me luck

with life.

I wish you luck...and I wish you hope,as well as wishing them for your mother.

Remember to be patient, because speaking from a parents point of view..we have much to learn as well.

When teaching comes from love and concern..it doesn't matter who the teacher is...meaning parent or child.

That being said, there is a time when it is best to point out things,and a time its best to leave it alone.
Again...best of luck to you,and all you hold dear to your heart.

I love the message you have here, but unfortunately, it doesn't apply to all.
Some out there have had mothers who were very broken,and have hurt their children deeply...knowingly or unknowingly. They are not the "rock" that will be there when you need them..sad to say.

For those people.. I hope that there is someone who comes into their lives....who can help them in the darkest hours...and to remember that they are not what their parent seems to be ,and not what their parent says they are.
