Not sure how to deal w it. He was a fun guy to work with. He’s a good person, but pretty crazy. This is the second time he decided he reeeeallly had to make a hard sell. I’m agnostic. I feel like it’s gonna really offend him bc he sent me paragraphs about the religious text and I simply don’t care. But I don’t wanna hurt his feelings. This time… Science proves it.

Can I have it both ways? I’m not gonna be an Islamic but I still wanna be his friend. but he’s being so weird about it and I’m bad about confrontation. I’m cool with his choices but damn

    Well, if you want to see if keeping him as a friend is possible, just respond with:

    You: I’m not interested in religion, and won’t engage in conversation about it.

    Friend: blah blah meaningful blah religion blah.

    You: I’m not interested in religion, and won’t engage in conversation about it.

    Friend: panicked or something religion blah blah convincingness blah, manuscripts, manuscripts.

    You: I’m not interested in religion, and won’t engage in conversation about it.

    <cycle repeats until>

    Friend: gives up and is just friend Or Former friend: freaks out or ends friendship
