Personally I read from the word "insist" in the secret that OP has already tried to say something and been ignored. I'd assume the girl has tried to say something to the fandom people who "insist" as well, for her to be complaining about it and all.

If the OP has tried to say something and the girl hasn't stopped, I'd call hypocrite. If OP hasn't said anything, then OP is in the wrong, yeah.

OP admits in the secret they haven't said anything about it.

To me that sounded like OP hasn't told her the hypocrite part, which is separate from the disinterested part.

I read "how do I tell her this" as referring to OP not mentioning that s/he thinks her friend is a hypocrite.

Not how I read it, but if that's the case OP just needs to find a new friend.

It kinda sounds like s/he needs to, anyway. Or grow a spine.

Good luck to OP convincing their friend that fandom is of equal importance to Jesus Christ

To a non-religious person, religion is a type of fandom. It's a story that a lot of people read and discuss and argue over and create derivative works of and whatnot. Obviously, to a religious person they're completely different, but to non-religious people, the Bible is nothing more than another written work.

So why try to convince them otherwise?

From the secret: "The hypocrisy is unbelievable. idk how to tell her this", hence my response "good luck convincing her that religion = fandom, then". Oh, and to everyone else who is like, "religion doesn't mean dragging people to church", well, it does if you're an evangelical Christian. That's central dogma in that case.

And people responded to that with: "Fuck their dogma" because I am not morally obligated to be less annoyed by someone trying to get me to do something I don't like because of their reasons.

Right, OP just needs to get a new friend. I feel like maybe they are trying to convince their friend to look at going to church in the same way as joining a fandom as a way of salvaging their friendship, but LOL that's not going to work.
