This is great news! Seeing the hypocrisy is sometimes the beginning of the "fade." I think he is conflicted about his natural affection for you (which the Borg tries to kill in all of us) and his faith. One thing for sure, it is NOT you who is causing this turmoil in him. It all belongs to the religion... they have tried to indoctrinate you father into believing something he cannot believe. I think he is wondering why there's little or no effort to help those still "in" the religion.

He may also be feeling a lot of guilt... but it is not because of you. Witnesses are conditioned to feel guilt... the Borg exploits this feeling... it's one of the most powerful tools they have to maintain order and control.
