State what you believe. A true friend will get over being disappointed.

that's silly....nobody expects their friends to agree with them about everything.....just don't discuss the other one with either of them.....

Just do whatever you want to do, not as others would have you do,

In the words of Oscer Wilde...

"There is no such thing as a good influence, Mr Gray. All influence is immoral - immoral from the scientific point of view"
"Why?"
"Because to influence a person is to give him one's own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtues are not real to him. His sins, if there are such things as sins, are borrowed. He becomes an echo of someone else's music, an actor of a part that has not been written for him."

Stay out of it. As long as they aren't making a deal out of it, neither should you

I have to agree with everyone else.

You don't have to agree with everything in order to be friends.

I have democrate friends and pro-choice friends. We simply don't discuss these two things when we're together.

Heck hubby and I don't even agree on gun control.

From my perspective I guess it depends on your goals and/or how good a friend you intend the person to be.

I have high standards for who I call a close friend. There are certain things that I will not accept from a close friend or family for that matter. To be someone who I consider a close friend, which means giving you access to my family we have to be on the same page morally or very close to it. Everyone has the right to their opinions or beliefs but if they differ too drastically from mine, sorry but you get to stay at arms length.

The best advise I have ever received was the following:

If you can't change your friends, change your friends.

Use it or ignore it....
