...Well, if you really believe your friend is on his way to eternal hellfire, what kind of friend would you be to let him fall? You don't have to scream fire and brimstone at him. But you can say, "You know, I'm concerned about your behavior. I respect your ability to make your own choices and have your own opinions, but at least listen to my concern." Respect for diversity is important, but if you can look through a conservative Christian's eyes, it would seem keeping friends (and even strangers) safe is a higher priority...
