I have a friend who is a committed Mormon. To her credit, she has agreed to my request that, in order for us to be able to hang out together without any conflicts arising, that neither of us will mention religion to the other (she used to try to convert me...it did not exactly foster peace between us). It's actually working well thus far. Our friendship is now simply as one human being to another; it's a 'conversion-free zone'. Halleluiah :toast:
To the Buddha-refuge i go; to the Dhamma-refuge i go; to the Sangha-refuge i go.
