I’m a Christian, the opposite happens as well. Why can’t we discuss our beliefs in a civilized manner? I will never tell my “pastor” about an atheist or theist in my area. Especially considering I have atheist friends.
I don’t need to discuss your beliefs for the same reason I don’t need to discuss the beliefs of the schizophrenic man that stands outside my building, clad in a blanket, shouting at the sky.
I have Christian friends. We all hang out because none of it matters. Sometimes we chat about it for the sake of chatting about it, but generally it’s the last thing on anyone’s mind. People who are vocal about their beliefs, one way or another, are annoying.
I lost a great life long friend 4 years ago and we gamed together. Sometimes when religion came up in a game we discussed it. Disagreed about it. Picked the controllers back up and played some more.

“Why some of my best friends are atheists! I just don’t let them anywhere near my kids.”
