@fr0d0, I don't think your situation is one unique to religion, i used to have friends that would make fun of other people's looks, i didn't like it and i stopped hanging out with all of them, cos i thought it was mean and i didn't want to put up with it. i'm sorry about the situation with your employer, hope things work out for you.
@Stimbo, nah, i didn't mean that only religious people have beliefs, but they are more touchy about it, at least in my experience. i have a friend who's prolife, and we argue about it all the time, but it's never affected the relationship. idk, maybe i just don't go out a lot? i haven't had any nonreligious friend getting into a fight with me just for disagreeing with their position.
