Fascination with a co-worker's projection [View all]

Sometimes we all just must accept and shine on the absurd. Present gig has me situated with a co-worker with a good work ethic, mediocre sense of humor, largely pleasant demeanor. Not an anti-vaxxer as expected in ancillary medical gigs but possesses a consumingly nonsensical Xtian faith. Most cringeworthy, although by agreement we avoid political discussions beyond my providing some science based websites I suggest he peruse.
The interesting observation: this cohort will start pacing, getting agitated and projecting his sublimated guilt as digs about my "lib" stance---
*Just prior to stepping out to smoke a cigarette.*
Laughable if not such moments I dare not poke the bear.
