Is it really worth the fight? He lives in the bible belt, he knew it was goingto stir up trouble. Is his mom right to cease communication? Of course not, she's a hateful human being. But is it really so hard to just bow your head while everyone else is praying? My buddy got married in a church last year an I was in the party. Should I have raised a stink about the praying? Activist atheists (or whatever they're called), are just as bad as extremist religious people.
