I very much believe in the right of Christians to share their faith with the world.I also believe in the world's right not to accept their faith as their own.Live and let live. Tell me your beliefs, I'll gladly learn of them so I can better respect them and you. But don't presume it is your "sacred duty" to make me believe in what you do.I believe it was the theologian Thomas Aquinas who said that believing is a free act of will. Doesn't that preclude having somebody's else will dropped on me?

I just don't want people to think that they need to change my or anybody else's faith. Sharing or just making people aware that there are other religions is fine as long as they are encouraging open mindedness, but actually seeking out to convert people to your religion is barbaric.

Thank you 2k very kind of you yes my dad and mom taught me well, they always said your actions speak for your soul. I grew up with not a lot of money in the family but my dad made sure we had fun and we went to church. Im a dad now of 4 kids and the look on my kids faces when we go to church where they have a blast learning about the Lord is so awesome!!! 2 of them go there at the school so they can pray at school!!!!!! wave the American flag talk about Jesus in the classroom, and whats better is that the teachers can talk about God both of my girls are 4.0 and better!!!! no Agendas its learning and bible studies there grades are up and up and thier is no violence on campus. School should be this way under God and free from the evils of people out there that are not kind.
