Yeah, it's not even worth getting into it with them. They won't change their minds. They're stuck in their bigoted ways. My wife's great-aunt came to us crying before our wedding because we didn't accept Jesus into our hearts.

Yeah it's never worth it. I have ultra religious family too and the mental gymnastics they do to defend their prejudice is baffling. I have so many shower arguments that will never see the light of day.

I just know her grandmother and her aunt will love her no matter what and those are the two important older people in that side of the family. The rest can fuck off and she won't care.
