My question to you tonight is, do you automatically think someone is creepy when they say they are a Christian, or is it just when they try to convert you? I myself am massively creeped out by the Bible Network and several real-life Christians I've met. I believe I mentioned earlier that it triggers my fight-or-flight reflex.
Follow up question, how would you react to someone "telling you about the Gospel" in a nice way? Is it always offensive/enraging/however it makes you feel? I know a lot of churches have Evangelism classes, but one of my favorite professors says they "teach people how to be socially inappropriate." What if someone took the time to get to know you, then tried to subtly bring up the Gospel a lot? More or less creepy?
This is really interesting for me, it usually produces good stories. I know I have a couple. Thanks in advance for replying!
I have never had close enough friends who were evangelistic minded Christians, that means I cannot answer your question I am afraid. Although if I had say an evangelistic minded Christian friend, who brought up the Gospel. I would reply politely and logically, why I cannot believe in what they believe.
