My parents want me to throw away my Orthodox icons and say that I have changed ever since I started going to an Orthodox church. They say that I believe “too much” and that I am different because I fast and take my faith seriously.

My parents are Roman Catholics from an ethnic minority background. I would describe them as somewhat agnostic, although they still attend Mass every other Sunday or sometimes every Sunday.

They also point to things such as the Holy Fire, myrrh-streaming icons and reports of Orthodox priests being attacked.

They say that Orthodoxy is a cult especially because Orthodox services during Pascha was very late at night.

They also tell me to live my life, don’t focus on religion too much and worry about your education and future rather preparing the soul.

My Orthodox Name is Moses ☦️❤️
