What is the first question you ask?
Have you had success at developing fellowship or friendship afterwards? Or does faith get in the way?

"Hi whats your name"
My friendships have never...let me repeat that never, revolved around someone else's faith.
That's just wrong.

The first question I ask is:
Have You Created Your Relationship with Our Creator (God's Will)?
blind faith is eliminated once someone has Created Their Relationship...
Our fellowship is continued to Heaven...
Create Your Relationship, join Our fellowship, and start Your journey back home, to Heaven:
Create a Private, Personal, Direct, Divine Relationship with Our Creator and save Your Soul from religion's and atheist's beliefs and start Your journey back home, to Heaven.
<<<<<<< UnConditional Love is the only answer >>>>>>>
Love and Believe in Our Creator;
Love and Believe in Yourself.
Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truly Free!

I have no idea what most people's faith is to be honest. I never ask. Sometimes it comes up but the people I associate with are generally very open minded and fascinated with my faith and the misconceptions of it. It's usually a fun discussion.

I am a motorcyclist, and I wear Christuian colors on my back, so when I walk up to someone they pretty much know MY beliefs. It's a great conversation starter for me to get to know theirs! The Bible tells us not to associate with evil, so if I find their beliefs unacceptable according to Bible standards, I use every open door to explain my own beliefs. Beyond that, I pray for them...
When I'm not wearing my colors, I am fairly well known in my community as a pastor's wife, so again, they already know where I stand...
We generally choose friends who have similar interests, whther it be motorcycles, playing golf, race cars, gardening or whatever! We have something in common -- something to talk about. Because I love Jesus SOOO much, my conversations frequently involve Him... That would be a hard friendship to maintain if I had to stifle my love for Jesus!

How are you?
No problem developing friendship. Fellowship becomes a problem.

Only if I know that I'm going to witness to someone....that's when I'll ask whether or not they believe in Jesus Christ.
If they don't, then I'll kindly point out that we are all sinners in need of the risen Savior.
If they still don't get it, then there's usually no reason to carry on in any way with the person.

I have never had a problem befriending people of other faiths. For example, I am Christian with a strong relationship to God and my church, and yet my best friend is Muslim.

I get to know them first. Themselves, children, work, education, activities, family and we move into the question of Jesus and we move into what we have and common first and we move into what we do not have in common. We are still friends afterwards.

I say: Hello my name is *****, whats your name?
*Replys*
"Pleased to meet you"
I rarely discuss theology openly with people I don't know well, infact none of my freinds share my beliefs, but they are still good freinds.

I usually try to stick with etiquette...at first anyway,
It is consider rude to talk about money, politics and religion.
