Would you be pissed??

Question

I was hanging out with a friend of mine the other night. He's been working on becoming a priest for the past few years (he's catholic).

He was talking about his struggles with celibacy and how he's trying to remain good in Gods eyes ect. I didn't mind the talk. I enjoy hearing about people's faiths as long as they aren't attacking mine.

Well the conversation segwayed in to H.P. Lovecraft writings (don't ask me how) and Cthulhu came up. I explained how Lovecraft made him up and was telling him a little bit about it.

At that point, my friend said "and speaking of that, how's your WitchCraft thing going?"

My first reaction was to be pissed that he went from a made up creature and compared that to my faith. But I just smiled and said it was going well. I dunno. Maybe I should have said something. But maybe he didn't mean anything by it? What would you have done??

Answer

Well, I've had an Ex say the same thing almost word for word, when I was working and he was asking questions about if I was still with my husband and was asking where I currently lived. I was avoiding the where I lived question, and he realized and loudly asked "how's that witchcraft stuff going, you still believe in that?" As I live in the Bible belt and was working as a cashier.
I was rather annoyed, but I stayed quiet sometimes it's better too.

Answer

Ignore it. It's not personal. I've noticed a lot of people are threatened by religious beliefs that aren't the same as their own. Maybe because they just don't understand how you believe what you believe.
