False religion is more than just wrong it isn't right with God and know you shouldn't let her believe in a false religon.
Our God is a god of truth and John 17:3 says taking in this knowledge means everlasting life. So the oposite is true.
If your not taking in knowledge than you won't have eternal life.

Yes it's right. But since I am not a Christian I can't tell you what is right for your religion. You make it sound like you own all the moral stock on goodness and truth here. Should you *let* them believe in Gods you don't believe in? Do you own them? Do you own their minds?
If it really bothers you to have friends who aren't like you, then the problem is likely you and not them. You have two choices, either give these people up as friends, or open your mind and accept them for who they are - beliefs and all.

You and your friends have the right to believe in every God. I think that is crazy to believe in Elephant heads but if the feel safe by believing in Elephants....Sorry but you cannot do anything

AHEM.
I believe in Ganesha. God takes many forms. Perhaps these are merely symbolic. Who can really say or fathom the full nature of God?
But really, I do understand - even though I don't agree with you - where you are coming from. I am able to understand your position, because I was not always a Hindu. I used to think a lot like you about "other" gods.
Hindus however, don't believe in multiple gods, as it would at first appear. They believe in only One God. But this one God is made known to us in myriads of ways.
Ganesha is very real. I can't tell you how many times he has made that clear to me.
Look at the works of those who believe in Ganesha. If your friend is good and loving, then they are not being led astray by demons or Satan or anything scary like that. If their deeds are good, then you know that the religion is working for them.
Pray to your God about how you should relate to your non-Christian friends. Let him help you to see the worth of each of his children.

How can I get this through your intolerant, dumbass fundie skull? YOU BELIEVE IN UNSCIENTIFIC BULLSHIT! What makes you think that the concept of a man-god being born of a virgin and sacrificed in a ritualistic fashion by your god and then being resurrected as a ghost is somehow less ridiculous than a god with an elephant head?
Try and grasp this fundie: you have no evidence to support your beliefs, and you're full of ****.

All religion is fiction. You believe in a man who walks on water and actually, not metaphorically, died for our sins. Hinduism may seem absurd to you, but Christianity seems just as absurd to me. Going to Hell for not worshiping God despite how good you are. Serving God when He's already perfect. Worshiping a book written in disjointed intervals. Why the nonsense yourself?

If God respects the free will that he gave all of us, we should respect it too. If you pray for your friends and love them, you will earn the right to be listened to when you share your faith. How you express something is often as important as what you express. If you are loving, you are sowing seeds in that person that may be useful to them later. In my experience, it is usually much better to be patient, and not too pushy.
Hoping the best for you...

You are not responsible for what your friend's believe. You ARE, however, responsible to be a Godly example of a Christian before them in your everyday life, and do your best to share your faith with them without being pushy, (nobody likes that), and hopefully they will see something in you that will make them thirsty for Christ. We are the salt of the earth......salt makes people thirsty.

Ask your friends to go to church with you. They can learn there that their elephant-headed god ("Ganesha"?) is not powerful at all, and was made up a long time ago.
Christians at your local churches of Christ can help you with this.
