I believe in the one and only God

@Jake966 Many do, they just disagree on which one it is.
Konicha605 · 22-25, F
@Sharon people should live and let live, any religion is valid. let's accept any way of thought and any religion
Sharon · F
@Konicha605 I agree. I just wish the evangelical christians, who (before the COVID-19 lockdown) harassed people in town trying to go about their business, respected that.

@Sharon Its not harassing people its just telling people about what they believe in which us christians are supposed to do , go out and preach the gospel of jesus , now not all Christian religions practice this but some do and its they're god given right to do so , don't get it twisted were not trying to force anyone to believe , its our job to lead as many people to Christ as possible , its up to those who hear to make any decisions about whether to listen and accept what they hear

@Highonheels
Its not harassing people
It is when I'm delayed or prevented from going about my business.

they're god given right to do so ,
Rubbish, you and they have no right to harass people. I could just as well claim it's my "god given right" to punch them in the face - except there's no proof your god even exists.

were not trying to force anyone to believe
Wrong! That's exactly what these pests are attempting to do.

its our job to lead as many people to Christ as possible
Then I'll make it my job to try to prevent you deceiving and exploiting vulnerable people with your BS.

@Sharon what does that have to do with my comment ?
Sharon · F
@Jake966 Are you referring to my initial reply to your comment or one of my later comments? Please clarify.
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@Sharon the one about bullying people
Sharon · F
@Jake966 I was replying to @Konicha605. I agree with her but, as @Highonheels demonstrated, some religious zealots seem to think they have the right to harass others. I've often experienced that type of harassment from evangelical christians when I go into town.

@Sharon oh I get it from Jehovah witnesses
Jake966 · 56-60, M
@Sharon I would hope and pray that you would come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ but it’s your choice
Highonheels · 51-55, M
@Jake966 that was pretty much my point in what I said earlier they have the right to say what they want but its your choice whether to stop and listen to them your the one taking your time to listen if you don't want to listen then don't stop just keep on walking
Sharon · F
@Jake966
oh I get it from Jehovah witnesses
In my experience, JWs are among the least offensive. They leave me alone the moment I say I'm not interested. Some of the others just won't take no for an answer and just keep on harassing their victim.

I would hope and pray that you would come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ but it’s your choice
I would hope and pray that you would come to the saving knowledge of Kahless the Unforgettable but it’s your choice.



@Highonheels
if you don't want to listen then don't stop just keep on walking
It's not always possible when they physically obstruct one's path. Some of them are really aggressive too. Their victims would be quite justified in giving them a good kicking and it wouldn't surprise me to learn that some of them have.

@CopperCicada true ! Very true ! When it comes to Mormons and JWs they are off the charts for their continuous pestering and badgering . They make others who minister non aggressively look like terrible people

@CopperCicada that’s good

@CopperCicada
Actually, I have found Mormons to be some of the most reasonable missionaries I have ever encountered.
I haven't encountered many Mormons but those I have give me cause to concur with you view. I worked with one a few years ago and never had any problems with him, he certainly never tried to proselytize.

I've encounted JW's several times and found them just as respectful.
