I just . . . wish I could still relate to him.

There probably are not soothing works for situations like this. When you lose a friend, no matter the circumstances, there will always be a hole left behind. I hope as time goes by that hole shrinks or it is less noticeable.
Things might be different, but you might be able to find other things to relate to him about that will keep the subject away from religion and politics. Y'all can talk about your kids and grandkids affably I hope.
If he insists on talkin about politics/religion, I think you should insist on talking about all your womanly problems (or similar subject to make him uncomfortable.)
