has anyone experienced persecution because you have had or are trying to have LDs? I got in a big fight with my parents because they do not want me to get into the spiritual realm.

The thing is, I am not even getting into the spiritual realm of LDs (I don't want to, even if there is a spiritual realm). I am just doing it for fun.

what have ya'll done in similar situations?

I am respecting them, but how do I tell them that LDs aren't spiritual, they are just in the mind?
