I'll pray for you

In the context of the religious learning of a person's atheism it's an "I'm right, you're wrong" posture. If you believe in yourself then just let them posture. Tell them they are very kind and thank them. After all, wishing someone well is very kind. In markib64's case, it seems pretty clear it's the same thing, and it's reached a level of badgering him.
