What do you say to someone who always has to bring God into everyting?

if the person is of god,they would respect you enough or should,to be polite enough,not to try and force god on you.i would simply say i respect that you have your belief but rather than to discuss/debate what our differences are.i'd like to agree to disagree.

Unfortunately I don't think there's an appropriate way to point out that you don't want to have their religious beliefs rammed down your throat at every opportunity. Religious people are very quick to get their knickers in a twist if you hint that you disagree with their beliefs.

If you're talking about Facebook (when you say you "log on") why not just hide their comments? And are you really friends with all these people? If you're not, delete those you won't miss. And make an effort to seek out friends with similar beliefs to your own.

I was in a situation like that with a friend awhile back. I finally stopped talking to her. She was nice, but it was to much.I would say "We are so gonna get A's on this test" and she would say "With god's help". Or she would be really upset about not spending enough time at church and I would try to make her feel better by saying how college is more important and she is doing really well in school and I was really proud of her and she would say that god wouldn't agree, he wants her at church. So I finally just had enough.

Can't stand bible-bashing to my face, but on-line I'm not bothered by it.

My stance has always been "Don't TELL me you're a Christian, SHOW me by the way you live your life".

Most Christians I know are good people.

Compared to some of my friends, I would rather a Christian visit my home than a non-Christian. At least I know they can visit me without them swearing in front of my children or me, they won't smoke or drink or take illegal drugs in my house, won't discuss inappropriate subjects in front of my children. I can trust them, they are safe, compassionate and kind.

Who do people call out to when their life hangs in the balance? When all else is lost? Superman? Just wondering. . . .

I don't think there's an appropriate way to point it out. But there is an fun way! When someone tells me God will make it better, I tell them "Couldn't he have just not screwed it up in the first place and saved everyone a lot of legwork?"

Of course, people don't often talk to me twice.

I don't think there is much that you can say--I went and asked a really basic question the other day in religion and spirituality---whoa baby!!!!!---26 answers...20 of them actually answered---but most had to quote scripture at me and a few apparently needed to pray form my immortal soul...most of the scripture quoting and praying is really self-serving, self-aggrandizing behavior. Quite a few worked themselves up into such a fervor they couldn't really read my post or answer my question--I believe those were the really, over the top mentally ill ones....ironically enough-I got the most intelligent and direct responses (and least self-serving) to a religious question from the ones that identified themselves as agnostics and atheists....I think the ones who quote scripture and don't really respond to you, really can't deal with the world at large--they use the quotes and religious fervor to distance themselves from people and make themselves feel superior.

If it is a public forum just skip those posts.

If it is a friend let them know you are really happy they are thrilled with their religion and that you need them to write/speak to you on more secular terms. Explain your spirituality doesn't include scriptures. Or, skip what they write.

Just tell them "I'm not ready for a relationship with God yet."

Religion, like politics is one of those subjects where everyone wants to tell you their opinion, but has no interest in yours, especially if it differs. Tell them flatly, "Please do not preach at me, if you do I will have to break off this relationship." Unfortunately,some people just dont get it, so be prepared to follow through..

Well, just tell him or her that you just don't want to hear about it-- end of story!
