You recognise the truth, but you fear the reaction of your family, community or peers.
I’m sorry to say this, but you’re just going to have to be brave.
My parents were Christian clergy, while various relatives were fervent missionaries.
My wife had to face her brothers who were all staunch secularists, rabidly opposed to faith then and to this very day.
The sister-in-law of the gentleman who introduced me to my wife was raised in a strict Sikh household.
A dear friend of ours is the son of a prominent Jewish rabbi, who embraced the faith while living on a kibbutz.
It goes on like this. When the truth becomes manifest you have to respond.
Maybe not now. Maybe not immediately. These things take time. But eventually.
Eventually, you will have to be brave. May God make it easy for you.
