Being friends with someone religious.
I have 3 really great friends, 1 atheist (former Christian), 1 catholic but doesn’t practice, and 1 catholic but it’s mainly her parents who bring her to church. They all know where I stand and would never push their beliefs on me and I wouldn’t do it to them. Anyways, we used to have a friend who was SUPER Christian I mean like a youth camp counselor, church every weekend, bible study ect. None of this bothered me because she never pushed her beliefs on me or talked about it with me. One of the main ways we connected on was politics, we were both blue. As she got deeper into her religion she started saying things that were very transphobic and rude. I called her out on it and she was like “that’s not what I meant” yea ok. We had already been rocky in our friendship after something else happened but I stumbled upon a video of this girl reading the bible and reading these horrible passages about ins3st and gr00ming. So naturally I sent it to her and asked if this is true, she said no and then continued to talk about me saying “it’s so rude that she would send that video, why isn’t she respecting my religion”. I still don’t understand how she defends that and thinks it’s okay. It’s sad to see your friends get lost in religion. Thankfully we are not friends anymore but i genuinely would never be friends with someone super religious again i just can’t do it. It’s so frustrating to me that people actually think things that are okay because “God has a plan”.
