If your friend is as open-minded as he claimed to be he will accept this argumernt. If not, then he is not as open-minded as it is claimed.
Just because he does not see things the same as you do does not mean he is close minded.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
