No, I don't want to find Jesus!

[BastardTart]

I have a friend who is a evangelical Christian. She is lovely, kind, funny, great fun to hang out with, our dc play well together, etc, etc.

But she keeps inviting me to weird brainwashy religious type meetings, where new recruits (for want of a better word) are offered delicious food and a talk about how Jesus wants to welcome them into his flock.

Now her church is a huge part of her life, but religion isn't something for me. But she persists in trying to convert me despite the fact I've stated I'm not interested. How can I get her to stop?

I'm not a religious person but I do believe that Jesus was an actual historical figure (not sure how the hard evidence stacks up though)

Good question. There’s not enough for us to be absolutely sure. Nothing concrete. I think he probably existed. The first writing and there are are about 25 years after his death. A few things from Flavius.

The general consensus is that he was an actual person.

just say no thanks, and if that doesnt work, my therapist has told me i am too old to have invisible friends or i cant go my invisible friend will get jealous im visiting your invisible friend or i cant im secretly Buddhist/Hindu/Wiccan/ Scientologist/Pastafarian/ voodoo etc one of those will flabber her gast and she will stop asking

She will be afraid that you are going to hell. My evangelical friend tried to convert me. I can't because I believe gay people should be able to have sex without going to hell. I'm also not convinced that Mary was a virgin. She was okay about why, but I guess disappointed she'll be in heaven without me.

they believe that only their way is the right way, and you will be better off if you join.

the definition of intolerance.

I couldn't spend five minutes with someone like this.
