I think she got to the point and made her desires clear enough. She did not want to engage in a conversation. And I dont blame her. It's like talking to a wall. "Running the risk of coming across as close minded" is irrelevant because it appears that the friend already felt that way from her email. It wouldn't matter in the least if Therese explained anything further. That may in fact lead the friend on to think Theresae does want to engage in a conversation by giving the friend information to refrute in a replied email. Which is exactly what Therese wanted to avoid per her email to her friend. Nip it in the butt and move on. I do however, agree with you, James, that it annoys me as well that people jump to assumptions and blame bad experiences (among other things) without you ever admitting if that were true. For example, some people think I'm gay because I may have had bad experiences with men. It's not justifiable and is false. Even if I did have bad experiences with men (who dont have bad experiences with men or women, really?) or bad experiences with religion, who I am is not derived from "feelings" but from biology or in religion case, reason.

Avoid those who are vexations to the spirit.
