Response to the comments if the "boyfriend wants me to fast" post I'm an atheist, but when I'm with my Muslim family, I fast. It's not a big deal, no real downsides except for going a little hungry. It's not like atheism forbids fasting, and trying new experiences should never be rejected. I saw people think this man had a sinister plot to convert her because he said she should try it. Honestly, I would tell my gf the same thing and its not like I'm trying to convert anyone. If he did think he could start a conversion with fasting, that sounds like a massive insult to his girlfriend, but there's no inherent evidence he's trying to convert her, so it sounds like he just wants to share. Sounds like you guys assumed he had an evil plan to convert because he was religious, which, really? Is that what atheism is about here? Shitting on religious people? Here I was thinking we discuss the faults of religions in general, not believing all religious people are evil and want to convert you. Kinda disappointed, honestly
