When Your Friends Desert You Because Of Your Belief by Oloruntobi4382(m): 7:14pm On May 18, 2017
Have your friends ever left you because of your belief? To me, Yes!. When i began mocking Yahweh, only 1 of them remained (Yes I know the exact number of friends i have). Those guys are selfish walahi. Did any of your friends ever left you because of your belief?

But your friends deserted you because (in your own words) you "mocked" God right? Am I correct in my understanding?
So they left you cause you were making fun of their God...which probably offended them brother.
If you are a "free-thinker" or subscribe to another belief then that's your choice...but you started being disrespectful about their belief correct?
So it's fair to say that it was your fault...right?

Like a quote I read a long time ago that said something like this.
People are in one's life for one of these three reasons:

A Season
A Reason
A Lifetime

So accept & learn from it for what it "was" or "is".

Oh.....so your friends mocked your belief first?
So you're a Buddhist? Interesting....
Ok...see you didn't make that clear or I misunderstood you.
You could've told them that you don't appreciate them mocking your belief...and if they continue then you may have to part ways with them.

Wait I had to go back and re-read.
You're making fun of me!
LOL...I'm embarrassed at the level of laughter I engage in on NL.
I love humor....truth be told....
It's either laugh, be angry or be sad.
But I know I'm wrong for laughing.

What do your friends know about buddha that they are mocking or Abi are you not a Nigerian? as to answer your questions I won't be so sure but my best friend who is a deeper life member I was scared I was going to loose her embarassed but she stayed we are still best friends though she always use to preach for me. I think the key is learning to respect once belief irrespective of if it opposes yours

Only one remained bro, a girl for that matter. I take buddhism more of philosophy than religion. I don't worship buddha but if anyone insults him, i'll trash his god. Nigerians can do anything for religion sha.

Your so-called friends were completely right to desert to you. Mocking a friend's beliefs isn't what friends do, especially when it comes to religious beliefs.

Don't see anything about friends mocking him first, if that was so important he should have mentioned it here already, not leave out that information.

Seems more like he deliberately left it out so that he could come back with the "oh I forgot, they mocked me first". If that's the case, I don't know why he's calling those people his friends.

Its one thing to change your beliefs and another thing to mock the beliefs of your friends. They didn't leave you because of your belief, they left you because you mocked their God, one which they have a personal relationship with. That's not very friendly of you.

You started mocking people's beliefs and you expect them to stay despite the embarrassment and humiliation you subjected them to ? Am I reading this right ? Nigga have sense please ... I know people who don't acknowledge God are bereft of this but just try .

I know you are trying to be smart like: "Yea, this dude just formulated the part where he said his friend mocked him first.". Bro, and you are SMART! and same time foolish. I did not create this thread to tell anyone how my former friends mocked buddha and i in turn mocked the beast Yahweh, i would have mentioned the latter part if that was my aim. But what i was trying to say: "When your friend deserts you because of your beliefs." I know Yahweh was a beast but didn't mention that until buddha was insulted, then i took the mocking extreme lol.

I know you are ignorant of what you are saying. Who fought for buddha? So does insulting Yahweh means i'm fighting for buddha? Yahweh is disgusting and to compare him to Buddha is even an insult. I know and i'm sure that you have insulted traditional gods and still go free but somebody can not yarb Yahweh in peace again?. I don't fight for buddha, his teachings are enough to change one's life. But Yahweh, you can't even read the bible without shaking your head about due to his wickedness.

Confusion, you don't believe in Yahweh yet you read the bible, how will you understand anything? You stated that you will defend buhda if people mock him so doesn't that mean that you intend fighting for your god?

When it comes to the Bible, you don't know anything. Have you ever wondered why atheists know how to trash you guys it's because they know the bible more than you guys. I'm not an atheist but why i read the bible is different from why you read yours. I have different translation with me plus the hebrew version. The bible is very good in CASTING SPELLS, SUMMONING ANGELS (Psm 91 is useful on that.), Evoking the Goetic DEMONS, the powerful rituals in the bible is something a spiritualist like me can't ignore.
