When friendship grows awkward over spiritual differences

My best friend from college and I used to talk about everything including our spiritual lives, but since she got really involved in her church and I've moved away from organized religion, there's this new awkwardness between us like we're both editing ourselves and neither of us knows how to get back to real conversation.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
