My wife has a friend who is very religious - more religious, it turns out, than we thought for years. We knew she was a believer etc. but thought it was in a more casual way, but have realized over the years that she's actually full-on God Squad (my wife helped the family to move house recently, along with a number of "Church people", and after they were all done and having tea in the kitchen... the conversation immediately turned to how awesome God and Jesus are ).

But yes, she has recently started admitting that she "worries about" us and her other non-religious friends... like actively gets upset sometimes about the fact that we won't get into heaven. Which I suppose is nice 'n' all but... please.
