This can not go unpunished!! I'm afraid...she must be Rick Rolled. Hail Satan. Amen.

Frightened people do stupid things. It is possible she thinks gawd will listen if enough voices join up......stupid, yes, in fact ridiculous, but you have to weigh everything else she is to you as a friend & just move on until things return to normal......

They will do what they feel is necessary to plant the seed of religion. It's like a compulsion but know she does it because she cares about you. However, in saying that it doesn't excuse her disrespecting your boundaries. I would draw that line in the sand again with her and make sure she knows you will cut her off if she oversteps it.

You've been granted permission to send memes and George Carlin videos. Take advantage

A lot of Christians have the urge to try to win you or convince you to accept their religion, so they are taught. She broke the promise but she did it "for a better cause". I would be pissed too!

Christianists think their situation is the "one true" belief system, and they're convinced that everyone would join them if only they heard "the word". Your friend doesn't care, and doesn't respect you. Her idea of friendship is disrespect.

Send her something like this, and at the same time, thank her for referring you to the crazy guy, she'll get the message if she has half a brain.

Thank you guys for all your comments. I knew I could count on you to make me feel better. I'd expect that from someone else that might not know me that well but I didn't expect it from her. I wrote to her and she said that she thought since she converted to religion then I'd might convert as well given her church is kinda relaxed and has it's own interpretation of god. I told her not interested and if she repeats it she's blocked. She hasn't responded. I appreciate all of youchiming in. Thank you

I understand how you feel. Religion drove my good friend of 37 years, Linda and I apart. She was born Catholic and did a 360 degree turn from being a fun, actually a little wild and crazy girl and non-judgemental friend into a deacon or asst priest of her church. We reconnected 7 years ago while I was fighting cancer in a rehab center and then last week on Facebook. So far so good. She knows I don't believe in a god. I'm hoping she doesn't overdo the Jesus thing again. Setting boundaries. She restores religious statues for free but likes Randy Rainbow like I do.

Always sad when this happens. In her case it is rude and not excusable, knowing the boundaries you had previously set.

she may have invited all her friends on the list instead of picking one by one. my mom does that all the time - with no religious stuff - and it drives me crazy too.

Some Christians and theists feel that they have an obligation to convert their friends to their faith regardless of the potential consequences that could follow.

Your second sentence says you have a friend. All of the rest of it proves that you do not.

My mother mailed me a letter a couple of days ago, inside was a copy of The Awake magazine, the JW pamphlet that they give out on street corners, along with a note saying that these are trying times and even though she knows I don't believe in the things she does, she still loves me very much and wants me to be safe and to live forever with her in the coming paradise earth. I was touched that she did this out of love for me and after reading the letter I tossed it all in the garbage.
People do strange things out of fear and that's what religion panders to, our fears of loss and of death and of divine punishment for our imperfections and failings. Everyone has doubts about themselves and the things they have done in their lives that they are not proud of but not all of us give into that fear. If they keep sending you this crap then you have to remind them of the agreement you made about their religion, if they fail to honour the agreement then it is bye bye friendship.

Her religion is more important than you are now. But, she might reconsider if you came over... I am so sorry, this clearly hurt you and you feel betrayed. I am sad to say...that people and some are our friends...are hooked on their religion and nothing is going to allow them the freedom to let people be something else. No, it is encouraged to go out and save souls! It is a sad time as we who are not of ‘the faith,’ are the ones being disenfranchised, disrespected! You have my condolences...it has happen to me with family that I love. It hurts! But, trying to change them takes too much out of me, so I set them free.

Sing some black Sabbath and say she invited you

People change over time and drop their loyalties. I'm sorry you trusted and got burned..

I don't have enough information to understand her motivations but I have encountered a range of theist with similar (totally lame) idiotic positions and behaviors.

Perhaps she recently underwent some trauma (stroke, emotional stress) and, unable to deal with reality, lost and afraid, fell into the quagmire of religion in an attempt to regain a sense of self-worth and through peer pressure (and fear) she drank the cool-aid and became convinced for her to be saved and ascend beyond the physical world, she must bring fresh meet into the fold.

Face Palm.

Sorry you experienced her mistake. I would say time to find a different on-line friend. She sounds "blocked" worthy.

I would simply have said, once I realized it was a religious virtual get together, that it isnt my thing. Even if she knew you were an athiest, if you had other things in common. who cares. If she doesnt respect you disinterest, then, she doesnt get it or get you. so WTF, this happens for various reasons that cause people to no longer connect.

Religion is the original "Network Marketing." And the sleaziest. Which might seem hard to do, but they manage!

Thank her for thinking of you but say that if she ever does it again you will have to rethink the friendship.

She is just doing what she is instructed to do by here authoritative figures and here book of multiple choice. As long as it is just on the internet and not in personal contact, I can just ignore them and move on as it is pointless to have conversations with them.

I’m sorry. The brainwashed are always trying to pull others in. I’ve met few believers who can resist doing it. Part of it is, it makes her feel better, so she wants others to feel like she does. Another part, they are taught to ‘spread the good news’.

Probably got to get her numbers up.

This epidemic is increasing the anxiety and depression levels of many and it is causing the religious to face their mortalities.... not to mention, religions are spreading the lies around that this is a sign of the end of times... and that believers must "save" the souls of loved ones.... in her brainwashed misguided way, this may be her trying to "help you". hehe
