I had acquaintenances in the past, and because I didn't 'convert' or join in their religion's activities etc. they seemed to lose interest and not phone or be as friendly anymore.
I feel this is unfair and makes their religion/beliefs seem very segregated and pretty rude also. If I ever joined a religious group(very doubtful, mind you) I'll be damned if I would enter one that eliminates certain people or makes them feel inferior or unwelcome!

that is true and no one should withdraw their love from you because you have certain beliefs.

Mabye they jsut want to further thier faith. Youll find that most soccer players' best freinds also play soccer. Fishermen hang out with fishermen, becuase they share the same interests. Its got nothing to do with hate or segregation, thats just human nature.
Im sure sometimes they are discriminating and what-not, but i dont think thats the norm.

They werent true friends at all then. Ive known people like that. My ex in fact. He wanted me to and i didnt want to and i refused until i finaly stopped talking to him. I think people lose interest because you were a so called "project" and they werent suceeding. So they moved in to the next. Im sorry about them. I think youll find true people and friends in life. Good luck!!

Fear of the unknown and in this fear comes the need to be right...This is what all the wars of the world are based on...The need to say my way is the right way....

I guess some people think that people who aren't their religion are going to bring them down, make them weak.

They want to establish friendships with those who share the same beliefs as them.

that's why i dont like religions that have to "sell it" or solicit thier congregation. hate, and judgement that makes them think they are better.
