yah... but that's the rub... evangelizing is one thing (although that word has gained a serious negative connotation), but forcing your will upon some one else is just SO counter to true christianity... ugh.

I try to "share" the gospel message with people... WHO WANT TO LISTEN. It's something I offer them. Like "hey - did you know that if you move the switch on your car from recycled air to fresh air that your windows will fog less in the rain?" It's a helpful tip that makes my life better, and might help them too. I think this analogy applies. What I don't like is for people to reach into my car and change the airflow selector... or worse, legislate so that if some one gets pulled over, they get fined or imprisoned for the wrong switch position.

it's a super crappy time to be a person of faith. just sayin'.

There's more toolbags thumping bibles, and not enough people reaching out to lift those around them. blergh.
