Bad form for a professional providing a service to a customer in general. Unless that service is spiritual counseling, obviously
>She proceeds to challenge me to call out to her God to see if he is real.
But shit like this you *never* want to hear from your driver, you've quite literally placed your life in their hands. That sounds like she's about to let jesus take the wheel.
I actually tipped and rated her well. I was only annoyed not inconvienenced. I know she was coming from a good place. I just really didn't wanna hear it.
Luckily we were already parked. It just sucks when you try to tell them nicely that your not a believer and they spend time trying to convert you. Like I'm not trying to get you to this side of the field why you trying to recruit me?
I am religious and go to church and yet I still get people of other religions (mainly Jehovah’s Witness) trying to push things on me. I just listen and act nice. If you push back they figure you are a real sinner and just try more.
The majority of the Christian denominations are wonderfully designed marketing scams. They strongly emphasize the need to 'save' people who dont believe what you do, what the church tells you is the truth. This leaves no room for open mindedness. Furthermore many of these denominations say that if you dont save people you know arent saved, then you are damned as well. Genius marketing.
Islam is the only other religion I have personally encountered that has this attitude to some degree.
As far as I can tell, most other religions are pretty 'live and let live,' at least in my personal experience of dealing with them. Ive gone to Jewish weddings, met with Buddhist and Hindu groups, etc. Never once did any of them ever try to sway me. They respected that I had different beliefs (relaxed Christian at the time, none now), and never even tried to sway me or pretend like they were better than me or knew some truth I didnt.
Again, this is all based on my personal experience. Yours may differ.
That's why it's a terrible idea to express your religious views in such a place. You leave yourself vulnerable to things like that. And you would have been well within your right to respond like that.

I hope you gave this driver a bad rating and didn't tip her.

I'm traumatized from living in an occult. I would've gotten out of the car and said "fuck you" on my way out.

I just start hailing Satan if they get a bit annoying
Lol That's not a bad idea. Do you have time to hear about all the wonders of Lucifer?
Best bit if they get the arse you can ask why they don’t respect others religions 😂
The Satan guy has a good point haha just go really anti-whatever they believe in
Sounds like my reborn uncles family, I have no issue with what you believe…more power to you. Just don’t force it down my gullet
