[QUOTE="Superbecky, post: 2534614, member: 865337"] Long story short, I have never met my cousin, but we have eachother on facebook. I used to be an Athiest, and I do believe in certain aspects of Evolution. I'm now a Christian and I'm one of those people who likes to post scripture and prayer requests on my status, but my cousin just can not respect that. For instance one of the most recent things I've posted was an encouraging portion of scripture, and she responded with a couple verses in 1 Corinthians about how women aren't allowed to speak in the church or whatever and it had nothing to do with my scripture. Last night we had kind of a mini Bible study on facebook and we discussed the context in which that was used. I then asked her why she felt like she needed to be so aggressive about what I want to put on facebook, especially since I don't try to attack her every time she puts up something that expresses her beliefs. She basically said that it offends her when I throw up prayer requests or scripture, basically saying that Christianity offends her. I'll support whatever she believes in, and I guess I expect her to do the same. I'll even send her interesting things about Atheism that I think are kinda cool. I love my cousin, but she's kinda bugging me. What should I do? [/QUOTE]
