Christian best friend asks me to reconsider

[Edwardo Piet]

His joy comes woody comes in the morning.

All guys say that.

Fixed it for you.

I know, I know. Poor Buzz Lightyear.

Personally, I find that letter creepy. I hope she's taking any medicines properly, because it reads like a manic episode. Maybe the best thing to do is to skip the religious conversation altogether and ask if she's seen her doctor lately.

Perhaps just tell her you unfriended jesus?

Min, we are all his children.
No wonder the fucker is nowhere to be seen.
Can you imagine the child support payments he'll be up for?

(Springy G, anticipating a sharp drop in the price of gold when the streets of heaven are unpaved to settle Jesus's child support debts, wonders if She should engage in short-selling precious metals shares)

You cannot choose to believe something, its involuntary.

I don't believe in gods therefore I am an atheist and no amount of people going "oh come on" will make any difference, what would make a difference, actual evidence.

I had a long breakfast with my christian best friend from high school the other day. I thought we agreed to disagree, but I got this long text of concern today. Its the same plea I've heard all my life, but she made it personal. She was diagnosed bi-polar and schizophrenic, so her experiences of hell felt very real to her. Maybe I should let her believe I got my ticket to heaven for her sake, but that is really hard for me.

Would anything bad happen to her because she knows your an atheist? Anything worse than her squirming in her chair at times?

You guys are funny as shit. Good shit
I should clarify she's my best friend from high school, and we haven't been close for years for many of these reasons. I let her assume I was still a believer until our long talk the other day. I responded:
Thank u Shan
I love you so much. We can agree to disagree but please don't worry about my eternity. I'll see u in heaven if there is one?
Friends have always been draining to me which is my fault, because allow it. So now I do without friends, because I can easily fuck things up with my now strong opinions. Not worth the agony. Damn! I sound like a bitch.

That's not being a bitch. It's what comes with maturity. People think you must learn to have all these friends even if they have all these opposite ideas, because tolerance and being open. Truth is that part of growth is learning to be comfortable in what you want and enjoy. If you enjoy it this way, do it this way. Life is too short to waste time being annoyed. If you like being around Christians that preach at you, do it. Fuck. Personally, I love people, but I don't like them. Lol! I like being alone. I make time to spend with friends, but not in large groups. When I'm with them, we can talk for a long while. Then I have to go somewhere alone and rest from all the peopling.

Thanx Jack
I'm discovering I'm an introvert in a family of loud extraverts. I need time away from people to rebuild, and love smaller groups also because its not fun to be apart of a show. My family cares too much about appearances. I don't give a fuck anymore
