Do you like it when other people try to push thier religious beliefs on you?

I don't like it when people push any types of their beliefs on me whether religion or way of life or idea... they can openly express it all they'd like but no one should ever force anyone to change their thoughts.

i don't. i once had a room mate who has different beliefs from mine. out of respect and because we are friends, i let her tell me about some things in their religion. i don't argue with her because there is no sense in doing so; she won't believe me anyway. if there are some points in her belief that puzzles me, i ask in a manner that won't offend her and she does the same, just for clarification but none that could start an argument.sometimes it's better not to talk about it but there are times when knowing what she believes in actually helps. it makes me understand her personality more.

no I don't. I'd be surprised if anyone likes having religious beliefs pushed on them to be honest. I LOVE to discuss religion. it's a fascinating subject and dialogue with people from different religions keeps you open minded and helps you to understand not only what they believe in but it helps clarify your own feelings. but when it's not open discussion and dialogue, but an attempt to convert, it's very unpleasant.

Well I don't like it to much when someone tries to push their religion on to me I mean everybody has their beliefs and follow their own path. I mean I don't mind if they tell me about their religion, but when they start forcing me to join their religion than I don't really like that to much right there because than I feel pressured. That has happened to me because this one lady just kept going on and on and she was forcing me to get into her religion and I didn't want that so that scared me a bit right there. So that's why i think that I will stick to my own religion. Everybody has their own belief and that's cool.

i just hate it and i have been experiencing this from 1 and half month...my family is not allowing me to eat non-veg from last 1 and half month...because in hindus the months august and september are said to be of lord mahadeva..named as 'shrawan month'...in this one month hindus should not eat non-veg ....i have no prob with that i have obeyed it but now festivals are continuous here after shrawan...so again i have to wait for 15-20 days more to eat non-veg....actually i am not a fan of non-veg and i dont eat it regularly but i like it so whenever i have a will to eat it.. i just depart towards restaurant and complete my wish there... my whole family is a vegeterian and they do not like me to be a non vegeterian due to religious view...but i dont believe in god or religion so i have told them already about it... this emotional abusing sucks....! happy mylotting

Religion is really a sensitive subject and generally most people try to avoid talking or discussing about it and I am one of such people. I try to divert the attention to some other subject like weather or politics etc.But some people try to drag us to the same subject.They may be very good friends for us or we may have to deal with them a lot in future.In such a situation the best thing we can do to laugh at them and avoid answering directly and slowly divert attention to another topic.I had to face such situations many a time and I started adopting this method which works well.We have to endure what cannot be cured.They are our close friends we cannot avoid them and at the same we have to maintain our views.There is no point in arguing with them as they are fanatics.Let them be.Who are we to change them?.We need not go in their way also but we can maintain our relationship cordially if we can adopt the method I suggested above.

I don't mind them talking about God or their religion for a little while just like you. If they do start to push it on me I try to change the subject or excuse myself. I know people have strong beliefs and I appreciate that, but I don't think it is right to push your personal thoughts on to other people. I try to listen for a bit but I don't appreciate pushy people and that does not stop at religion I don't like any body trying to push any thing on me.

I think that people should not force religion on anyone,as i think that if they want to go to church then it is up to that person.I tell people that i do not have to go to church to pray,as i can pray at home if i want to,also that anyone can be a good person/christian and they do not have to go to church to be a nice person either.

I always treat it as one kind of art, every religion have some long and moving stories, no matter at last you trust or not, the story can give you special experience and sentiment , teach you some thing about real life, it is not cheap at all. in the after of you life it must be useful, I think you should appreciate God or their religions may be better.
