what if your friends don't agree

today Lillith attended a big deal for one of her school friends. Sanchia. Now, Sanchia, used to be a Catholic, but now?

Not so much.

Now Lillith has attended services tonight for her friend Sanchia who was being baptised.

Did all of Lillith's class attend? No.

Why? Well, Sanchia is a Christian. What this means? I have no fucking idea.

Why? I have no idea of Sanchia's level of Christianity. I am sure that she is truly devout. But does that mean that Lillith is interested? No. When I suggested that Sanchia was evangelizing? Well, what the fuck do I know?

As it turns out? more than I appear to know.

Not that Lillith is willing to talk about it.

blech.

How do I get her to talk to me about this?

I recommend not trying to talk to her about it. Pushing her will only encourage her to give more credence to the evangelizing - out of spite or annoyance or general teenage stubbornness. Even if she does seem to be pretty hot on this right now, I guarantee it will pass, particularly if she doesn't get a rise out of you about it. Good luck, babe!

She was talking more about it on her own this morning. At least we can say that the Church wasn't a store front but she got the full court press. Mostly she was just creeped out.

Nefarious: Create an email that looks like it's from one of her friends and email her.
