I would like to thank you for your insightful answers that I have questioned. You see, I married at 34 and was blessed with 3 terrific boys, one son however was a still birth and i have never gotten over if, through it, but never over. the tikun story helped alot, however, i ache for another child and I have ben praying with kavanah for a while,although i am older, I have faith, thank you for your guidance. I have big problem with regretting the past, ie, I should have moved here sooner, had more children, etc, etc, howver, reading Tehillim in both languages shows me that Hashem is in control, so this is the way it would have turned out anyway instead of beating myself up till i am black and blue. By the way, I went to Yeshiva as do my sons now, my husband was robbed of his religion and tradition, so even though he did not even attend talmud torah, which is minimal in my views, he did agree to bring up our boys in the Young Israel tradition which is what I wanted, so Ii saved 3 souls and my 4th angels soul is in heaven

Question
Hi, I have a question concerning something that is distressing to me and I am wondering if there is a Jewish law concerning it or not. I am a very G-d fearing Jew and I recently had dinner with a friend of a friend who was raised Jewish but is an atheist. She was giving me her reasons why she is an atheist and said that she found great inconsistencies (sp?) with the Torah and that she didn't believe in a "profanity" G-d who was so "profanity" vengeful. I listened respectfully though she knows I do not agree. Now I am terrified that I committed a grave sin by even listening and continuing to talk to her afterwards and not up and walking away. I believe in free speech but I am terrified of being punished. Am I crazy or did I committ a sin?
