I feel I should try tell him about why Christianity is wrong but he he refuses to talk about the topic of religion, should I try and convince him or just allow him to go on living with the lie?
Cheers :-)
I agree with all the infidel atheists here
that leaving him be unless he brings it up is best.No one likes to be challenged about anything out of the blue. Puts them on the defensive. Dig in their heels and all that.
Now if he were to question you, or ask about your own thoughts on the matter, he has invited your response (though opening with "Christianity is bunk and this is why" is not likely to get a good listener).
