Renewing Faith

[RogueEagle91]

a good friend of mine believes she is losing her faith. she is Presbyterian (i think). if not, at least christian. anyway, i would like to help her in some way to regain her faith in god. it's very important to her, but i'm not too sure what to do. one major problem here: i'm in no way, shape, or form religious. we both know i lost my faith a long time ago. any ideas?

Introduce her to the teachings of the Buddha.

Tell me about her lifestyle.

She needs to see a preist or whatever leaders that religion has. Or scare her into it.

How about leaving her figure out what she believes on her own, man? That would be the best thing to do.

Tell her to be strong. Also tell her that she doesn't need god to live her life happly.

P.S. Don't forget to mention to her that god doesn't exist.

yeah... thats just dandy. i gladly would, but i dont want her to hate me. and yes, i had thought of that option. and i would leave her to it, but i inexplicably cannot.

Sit down with her and find the cause of her belief, then slowly refute the bible. Ask people on here for some tips?

How about not pushing her in one direction or another, making sure no one else is trying to push her in a certain direction, and leaving her alone to figure it out for herself?

Yes, I’ve posted this once before, but I think it’s the best thing to do.

hmm... probably gonna go with lack of input then. sadly, it wont do much good. there are about 5 other people involved in this, pushing her back into things. but, hey, thanks for the help guys.
