Jim, I have to ask again how you will feel if she brings a Buddha image into your home and lights incense and candles, puts food and water out, and engages in other religious practices common to Thais. Unless she is a Christian or Muslim Thai, it will certainly happen. If she can't practice her relgion she will not be happy. Buddhism is woven into the fabric of Thai culture. If you attempt to convert her, she will smile and pretend to comply. However, she will feel extremely uncomfortable in such an environment.
