RE: How can someone convert from Atheist to Religious

Generally we're quick to react and respond, usually negatively, to an atheist who converts to a religion.

It's common to do that.

What we need to do is take a step back before we react and ask ourselves a few questions:

1. Do we understand/know what this person is going through in real life?
2. Has their religious choice changed the person they are?
3. Are they still actively interacting with you as they once did?

Don't be too quick to judge.

Ask the person why. If they want to, they will tell you.

If not, leave them to their choice and support them.

Only respond judgementally if they start trying to convert or judge you.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"
