How would/did you get through this?

I'm 24..So my father was mentally and once I'n awhile physically abusive. I've never been good enough for my father. He is very religious, I am an atheist. Because of that he shuts me out of his life. The only time he wants me around is holidays. I refuse to see him on holidays because those aren't the only times to see your child. 1 month ago I said I've had enough and get out of my life for good. Ever since then he won't stop harrassing me to where I had to change emails, phone numbers, I even moved.. For some reason I'm still very sad that my father decided to actually want to be a part of my life when it's to late for me. I've begged and pleated for years for him to be around more and not be abusive. And he won't stop being abusive. He is abusive to everyone behind closed doors. How would you cope with this and move on without him?
