It's only a question and nothing to be angry about. Just say "I prefer not to talk about it".

I don't think religion is a sensitive issue or topic and should be discussed openly friendly and honestly with all. If folks say no or want to argue, move on. There are millions who want to share and talk.

According to the Bible Jesus said, If you're a Christian and a follower of mine Jesus Christ, you would be happy, eager and willing to share your belief in him and his saving grace message. I can provide you with a couple of scriptures.

But as you know man has free will and free choice not to do anything at all.

Finally, don't get mad, just say thank and walk away or just walk away.

Never argue with anyone about your religion and belief.

I don't think it's anything to be mad about.  If you're not comfortable answering the question, just say so and move on to another topic ... Or another person.

Youve certainly proven your point. Religion has been the cause of much madness for a very long time.

Agree. Me either. Jesus Christ said tell the world about me and my saving grace message. If folks say no just keep moving, certainly nothing to get mad or fight about.

One Friday night I was killing some time in a pedestrian mall in Townsville, way up north in the Australian tropics. Two young Christians approached me, one in a wheelchair and the other keeping him company. They wanted me to attend an evangelical meeting.

I said, "Sorry, I'm here for a workshop. I'm going to be tied up all weekend."

That's when the guy in the wheelchair stopped being polite and snapped at me, "If you gave your heart to Jesus you wouldn't be having trouble with your wife."

It broke me up. When I stopped laughing I said, "It's a great line, mate. Statistically you're on a winner, but you've picked the wrong bloke."

But I'm not always polite when they keep pushing.

Oh my .. I too would have had some passive aggressive response to that message too. Nothing irritates me more than someone who suggests our troubles are gaged by our faith. Pffft. .. that's just not how it works.

It was comical really. The guy had no conception that we are actually responsible for our own actions and, most often, for our own circumstances.

Sadly, there are those who believe that concept wholeheartedly. They claim all you have to do is believe in God and pray things work out for you .. if something goes amuck .. then it was because you didn't pray hard enough. Pffft!

Not sure why you would be "mad" .. Unless you live in a country where your claimed religion can get you into trouble. If however you are in country that practices  religious feedom it's not likely to be a question that would be asked out of malice. It could simply be a matter of curiosity or even an opening question for a debate. In any event, in a country where you enjoy religious freedoms you can also choose to refrain from answering the question, and leave it at that. You don't have to answer to anyone about any personal information or matters of choice.

Religion is a sensitive subject and will continue to be until people learn to talk openly about it. Once people learn to understand one another it will be touchy. So unless the person is someone who seems threatening and narrow minded, why not talk to them. I have friends of all religions and we tend to bond over what we have in common, and not fight over the differences.

You should be proud of what you believe in. For most people, it is part of their culture . . . Part of their family tradition.

When you start caring what everyone else THINKS about your beliefs, is when you should start wondering why you care.
