When i encounter a street preacher i always stop for while and listen to what they are actually preaching. After a while i figure out if they are true followers of Jesus preaching the truth or if they are wolves in sheep clothing.. Once i know what they are then i will either go up to them and give them a smile and a shake of the hand or i will turn around and leave them without comment..
@Adstar I was texting my wife and heard....
So I post about the Gospel and I have an individual saying I haven't got the job and another obsessing about nationalistic identity.
Great are the rewards of being a Christian poster 😂

@RachelLia2003 Sure. You strike me as such a great example of a Christian with all your God glorifying posts and encouragement of other Christian posters ☺

Respectfully I have to disagree, the reason being is that in the early days when a person is searching for something which we as Christians know to be Jesus, they are not ready to hear the harder messages and sometimes it can do more harm than good when a street preacher is giving out a heavy "repent or perish" message to people who do not know God. It pushes them away. I hope that these preachers pray first and ask the holy Spirit to guide them. What I know of God is that he is infinity loving, gentle and compassionate. That is the side of God I would think would be a gift to share.

@Jayciedubb have you read Isaacson's biography of DaVinci? It is amazing. We went to an exhibit of his sketches/drawings at the NY Metropolitan Museum of Art a couple of years ago, it was astounding.

@samueltyler2 I've seen a couple documentaries about him, and I have a few of my own theories.
I think he was such a great painter because he was such a prolific inventer and had to be able to illustrate his ideas just for himself at certain points of the process.
I think when he came to understand phi, he was able to apply it fractally, in all aspects of his work, not just in physically proportional ways, but in color balance as well, making him more like a photographer than a painter.
Do you find it strange that modern art
emerged right after photography was invented? I have a theory about that, but why do you think they hang modern art?
Answer: ..because they can't hang the artists 😜

With apologies to @BritishFailedAesthetic if this is seeming to hijack his thread, but I'll just finish off my discussion with @sree251 which I promised to do.
It may be a cultural difference, but in the UK employers advertise jobs and those looking for work apply. Many apply for one job and part of the process of choosing a new employee is to invite people for interviews. Perfectly straightforward. I think the sense of aggression came when you said it sounded like streetwalking.
Normally, if someone told me that they had a job interview I would be delighted for them, therefore your apparent moral judgement seems very odd and perhaps aggressive. Are things very different in the States where employers just write to you and ask you to come and join?
I'm happy to take this to another post if that is more helpful.

Going for an interview for a job doesn't sound good.

@FreddieUK
I can close this diversion with a short reply. You are a Brit and I am American. Looking for a job is the last resort to make a living when you throw in the towel and give up hope of realizing your dream. I would rather be dead than go looking for a job.
