Jargon, not argument, is your best ally in keeping him from the Church. Don't waste time trying to make him think that materialism is true!

If they laugh and smack the ground saying “Bold ground,” then you pick yourself up and get on with it.

At the end you can never tell who has won the fight, and who has lost, because they do not show their emotion because it could embarrass the loser. It is unbelievable.
