Scenario

When a dying parent asks you to pray but you've lost faith

My dad is dying and he keeps asking me to pray with him but I stopped believing in God years ago and I don't know how to tell him without breaking his heart.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The collision between love for a dying parent and honesty about one's spiritual evolution creates an impossible choice between authenticity and compassion.
