If you raise your kids right, they'll never end up with a religious friend.
Short of telling them "religion is evil and worthy of ridicule and you should not accept it in your presence" or actively encouraging them to adopt antisocial behaviors I don't see how this works.
So yeah tell them the truth sounds about right.
Lemmy is an astoundingly hateful place.
Just like church!
Ironic, isn't it.
so is main stream christianity 🤣
Most of the underground stuff too
I was being nice lol
It's really ironic, isn't it?
I know, right? They post stuff like this:
Yes. I wanted to test something.
My expectation was confirmed.
Hateful religious people are reaping what they sow.
"Religious" covers an extremely wide area of behavior. There are lots of good religious people and shitty non-religious people. Need to be more specific.
Yeah, I find OPs statement a bit problematic considering it covers so much. Also, indoctrinating hatered seems a bit - counterintuitive to the "my beliefs are your beliefs" people. Also, a friend may be better in moments than no friend (as long as they're not a dick).
Better to be friendly than judging someone based on their parents
