How do you deal with religious tension at work?

Is there a way to calm the divide? And if so how? Thank you.

Christians and bible thumping asshats annoy me. Maybe if a cute female one apologized on her ummn knees. No more irritation

@TheLoveAge: serious in a lighthearted tone. Im a deep guy hunny. Many sided. Not black/white.
Pray about it. And if you and some other person are at odds at what you two think regarding religion then simply agree to disagree and move on and past with having a discussion about it if it causes that much tension for you or others that your talking about it with. If they are bullying you or harassing you a great deal over it then simply go to your boss. And explain to them your situation. Religion is one of those things were everyone will have their own views and different opinions on the matter (not everyone will agree on everything) much just like politics
Tough, but if both parties approach the subject with respect for the other person, a rational discussion can happen.
@ReaperofTime: What would you have to say that a bush would want to hear?

Yes there is.. Jus let others know and try to help them understand your beliefs and how you respect them and how or what they choose to believe in.. Because what we all believe in not driven by the core and foundations of love?

Why would you get religious tension at work ?

One has to dominate the other, one is always right. That's pretty much it.

@TheLoveAge: read my story. Politics and religion

In what context ???
If you're a novice nun, of course you're going to get this stuff !!!
If you're stacking shelves in Wal mart it's inapropriate !!
So what context ?

@TheLoveAge: tell them you're a Satanist

But seriously if someone is bugging you with it you have a right to ask them politely to stop :-)

It's a delicate balance between humor and distraction i think:)
