I told my cousin that I was Atheist.
So a couple of months ago I became an Atheist the rest of my family are Baptist. I haven't told anyone because most of them will not take it well and my mom would be especially upset. I love my family and they are great people, but you know how people can be when it comes to things they are passionate about, especially religion.
I just got done telling my older cousin that I was Atheist. We are like brothers and I was worried he would take it badly, turns out he doesn't believe in God either. It was really cool finding out that I am not alone. I just don't know how to break the news to the rest of my family. I have been asking questions and testing the waters but it only serves to get me in trouble like when I ask "what proof do we have of God?"
I am most likely going to wait until I'm 18 which will be in a year, but if a situation arose and I decided I wanted to tell them flat out that I'm Atheist how should I go about doing this Flood?

I feel like this is a hard decision. On one hand, you should have the right to be open about what you believe, and your family should still love you. On the other hand, it could strain your relationship with them. I think you'll just have to go with your gut. If you think your relationship with them will still be okay, then go for it. Otherwise, I'd just keep it to myself.
