Given the length of this thread so far I can quite understand why your mum didn't want to get into a debate about morality with you at the time. (After rightfully telling you off for breaking the law and showing her disrespect in her own house).

Why you like interfaith...
Why do you think that?
I am perhaps the one challenging or accusing here... So how does that make dogma?
