I have a lot of friends. I'm Muslim. I have a friend whose christian, I have a friend whose Hindu, I have a friend whose Jew, and I have a friend whose believes in Buddah.
We don't want to change our religion, so, we just don't talk about religion. But my other friend whose atheist want to talk about religion because she is confused and she wants to become a part of one religion. I have give her the details of Muslim and my other friend give their religion's point of view...... It makes me even more confused at what other's have to say

When I say I'm confused, I meant by "I want to let her know why I believe that my religion is the true" but I know my other friends with other religions is going to argue with me, it's going to be an all day arguement.

Religion is not something to be taken from man's talking.
It requires serious learning from the Holy Books which are now freely accessible on the Internet.
Mankind are no longer in the age of childish imitation, they already reach the age of rational maturity. The new culture of this time is the culture of learning.

I think that you should be as honest as possible when someone asks you about your religion, or religion in general. Someone who asks, wants to find truth, or at least a meaning to their lives. You would be doing them a great service to give them your honest point of view. If your friend doesn't want to join your religion, accept that, but respect the choices they make.

She isn't an atheist. She may be an agnostic, but it is more likely that she is a confused theist.
Of course you would be confused if you were trying to pick one out of the pack. There are so many and they all have exactly the same evidence.

She is not atheist. She is an agnostic. It means she is open to other religions. And she probably just has a natural curiosity about other religions and just wants to learn about them from someone who is part of that certain religion.

I'm not about to preach the gospel of Christ to you but I'm curious if any of the others are based, grounded and rooted on God's expression of love. There is no confusion when love is understood from a standpoint that it is the one basic need of every human.

Just a word of warning if you try to force a religion on a person it wil not work. Tell her what your religion is about and let her sort it out.

When you say you're confused, do you mean you're having doubts about your own religion? There's nothing wrong with questioning it. Maybe you should talk to your other friends about it, instead of keeping it off limits. Maybe one to one with each of them.

I've always found that if you want to keep things from getting out of hand, steer the conversation away from politics and religion.

Your friend is no Atheist.
No atheist would ever state they were confused and wanted to join a religion. Stop lying - to yourself and others.
