Losing a freind of 10 years because he joined a Fundy evangelical church,he said the church didn't allow him to hang out with non christians. I was a Satanist most the time we knew each other. He had no problem with it,until he was sucked into that church. I was crying my eyes out and he left me as I was crying. I lost several freinds over the years due to christianity. Every time it hurt.
Beautiful painting really captures the barrenness of losing freinds to christianity.
