Faking religious affiliation

[Q=Ben Kenobi;5755472]Just the opposite here. I've had people stop talking to me because I was a Christian.[/Q]
In the hospital I talked to the grandfather of one the other babies in the NICU. We talked about miracles. I said my daughter's name was Elyana, from the Hebrew meaning "God answers [prayer]" and that we were praying for her healing. He was momentarily speechless and then muttered something like "I didn't mean it like that." I guess he didn't want any God in his miracles, just "oh isn't that wonderful" miracles.

I think there's more hope for those who won't talk to you because you're Christian than those who believe in "miracles" but not God. I have a hard time understanding the former at all.

Don't you mean the latter?
