Not Anti-christianity - Tumblr Posts

Why’s a christian’s first instinct when encountering an atheist or someone from a different religion to immediately start trying to ‘turn’ them? I’ve started just avoiding the topic with both my parents and other people solely because I don’t want to listen to them try to convince me of their beliefs.

Religion is subjective. I have my own beliefs— you have yours. This sounds mean, but I didn’t ask you to tell me your conversion story, I didn’t ask you to ‘lead me to the Lord’. I don’t try to convert people to my religion— or lack thereof— so PLEASE stop trying to convert me to your own.

Also, this isn’t a dig at christians as a whole— just a group of people I’ve encountered throughout my whole life. Please stay considerate of people who aren’t of your faith— how would you feel if I started trying to convince you your God isn’t real?
