she says: Romans14:2, One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables.

I think the quote says that your faith _allows_ you to eat everything. but not that you _have_ to. You are choosing not to, even though you very well can.

even though i feel my faith is strong and that no one is trying to convert me, she says it doesn't matter because im breaking the 1st and 2nd commandments by doing this

Now I may be wrong, but are the first 2 Commandments "Have no other god before Me." and "Love thy neighbor as you's love yourself." ? If so then unless you are following the gods your friends follow and worshipping them. I don't see how you can be breaking the first one. and by respecting your friends beliefs and attempting to understand what they believe while teaching them about Christ seems to actually FOLLOW the second Commandment.

And, she also uses Romans 13
1 Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.

Again I may be wrong, but is not part of the Government of our country that we the people can push for reforms when needed? if so then you are just taking part in what the instituted government is made of.
I hope I've helped and just warn you to be carefull for I'm no... well anything when it comes to government.
