If he truly cares about you and you soul, he'll never give up.

Well , a Christian doesn't marry an atheist , because an apostole said that Christians who marry must follow Jesus Christ.Perhaps he is a beginner and being a beginner he can have a relationship with an atheist , even marry her.A true Christian educated in Christianity from birth cannot fall in love with an atheist ...I guess because atheits cannot give him a moral suport any christian need inside a society where many ideas against christian views and way of life are circulating...

unfortunally it is very difficult to have a calm conversation about religion if it is from two opposite ways of thinking. If you bf is serious about his faith he would not change and if you are sure about going with out believing on any thing then there is nothing you can do about it and belive me, I do not know how serious you guys are, but this would bring you a lots of problems in the future and as I can see basing my assumption on your question this issue is already creating some type of problem in your relation. I tell you what, I am an atheist as well, single and good looking so what's up luismartinette@hotmail.com

Your best bet, in my opinion, is to calmly but stressfully tell them that you're not interested in that belief. That it can cause a rift between you if they keep on pressuring you (unfortunately, that's what christians do.) If you're truely good friends you should be able to leave this particular debate in the dirt behind you while you are still friends. If they keep on, then at that point, they are not respecting you or what you believe in (once again, another stereo-typical christian trait.)

I'm also an Atheist and, I'm not sure where you're from, but in my neck of the woods (Texas), you can't talk to Christians about religions that aren't theirs calmly. I know it's a huge stereotype but, in all honesty, I've only met three Christians that were like, "Oh, you're an Atheist. That's different." in my life. The entirety of my life. A few asked what I believed in and then stared, one accused me of having a "sick heart" (to which I replied that it was scientifically proven that Atheism is caused by a congenital heart defect and she believed me.) and most just go on these religious tirades about their superiority and my upcoming eternity in Hell.
It's annoying and most of these people have no investment in the resting place of my eternal soul. I feel so bad for you.

You can be calm, but he can't. Like or hate, we Christians are excited about our faith and the changes it made in our life. Some people like talking about celebrities or cars or postage stamps. We like talking about Jesus. He's important to us. It's sad that you don't share this important view point. I'm not saying you're wrong (although I do think you are). I'm saying this issue will NEVER go away and it will come between you. Either you will convert or you will influence him away from his faith. Either way, someone is likely to change.

By taking off and leaving him behind. If he keeps trying to convert you, eventually you will get sick and tired of the preaching and you will end up hating him. Tell him to stop, or leave. I can barely speak to my brother any longer because he does the same thing.

You do not seem to have very good communication going on. Say to him that if there is God, He knows that you are not interested in Him.
You have a free will. God respects your choice.

i'm pagan, my husband is pentecostal (at least he was the last time he went to church).
i just told him that his beliefs were his, and if he didn't try to convert me then i wouldn't try to convert him.
good luck.

if you two really love each other it will work. i've been married for thirty years, so i know that it is possible.

If he is a true christian and he truly loves you he will never understand that sharing his faith with you is a waste of time.

Don't explain calmly, very bluntly tell him the honest truth!
