Bit of a nitpick, but FYI I think you’re using “worldly” here in almost the opposite of the way it’s usually used. It seems like you mean “weighty” or “philosophical” or something to do with the big questions in life. Whereas traditionally, the term means:
of or concerned with material values or ordinary life rather than a spiritual existence
On that definition I’d say it was your friends who wanted to talk about worldly stuff, while you wanted to push the conversation in a non-worldly direction! (As I understand, the meaning originally comes from contrasting “the world” and the church.)
Oh, hmmmmm. Sorry for lack of clarity. I don’t remember exactly what the topic I brought up was. I just know it wasn’t very ‘local’. Could have been philosophical / deep. Could have been geopolitical / global / big picture.
