Most people have doubters or even non-believers in their family.
My brother was a doubter. He is an Electrical Engineer and a PE who is currently studying for his Masters in Particle Physics. His study of science brought him to not only an acceptance of God, but a rock-solid belief in the integrity of God and Jesus Christ. For the past 30 years he has studied the Bible as diligently as he studies his science. In his view, each supports the other without
"warp or wobble".
For others, the study of science turns them to the worship of nature or even mankind and all that mankind has wrought.
My family, like everyone on this planet, has inherent "God knowledge". Some nurture this knowledge, some refuse it and some fight against it. However, we are all honest enough, have enough maturity and insight to recognize it is there regardless of what we choose to do with it.

My husband is a non believer and it's hard for me to think of him possibly spending eternity in Hell. The worse part is that he is half responsible for raising our children and I get scared thinking about him influencing them in that way and sending them in the opposite direction. As of right now though, I just ask God to help me be the best possible Christian I can be and pray that my children see that and want to have God in their life.

When I was a girl I lost my parents, my dad when I was 8, my mom when I was 15. They were not Christian. This has been hard for me knowing - unless they had a seed of faith I was not aware of, then I will not see them in eternity.

I have an uncle who is an atheist and we get along.........
except for when my mom was dying of cancer and we were all praying around her in her room.....he was kind of disrespectful and left the room but later I realized I need to respect him and his beliefs.
I have shown him truth and it was his decision to deny it. That's all I can do.
I still love him to pieces and he is a great husband to my Aunt.
