I haven`t been baptized. I`m the only Christian in my household...I`m 17, just converted in May...my mom isn`t Christian...so she wants me to wait to be baptized... and well...sometimes I go to her to discuss God and Jesus, and I get really excited (she gets annoyed and sends me away) . one time she said to me`, "Calm down and just live your life. What if there wasn`t a God afterall?" and I got scared because... Aren`t parents supposed to guide you? not plant seeds of doubt in your mind!! So I started to cry...One time We were debating about Mary being a virgin. And my mom said, "she`s not a virgin" and my sister agreed, but then something just came out of my mouth saying "Jesus was born of the Spirit and not the flesh..."(I`m wondering if that was the Holy Spirit) My sister and mother laughed at me. I didn't care.

What do you think of this situation?
