relationships with believers.....

Posted by thor on July 12, 1998 at 19:15:09:

What do you do if you fall in love with a TBM?
What to do if you are in a relationship with a TBM and the truth would kill
them? Is it completely unethical to keep quiet? Or should one subversively
introduce them to a different worldview?
i have my own opinions, but i'd like to hear what y'all think..
