You may have a nice intention to try and share "the good news" of the gospel, but it simply doesn't work on educated agnostics.
What's the supposed "good news" anyway?
The only "good news" would be if you already believe the Old Testament.
And even then it's not very "good news" at all.
The supposed "good news" is that Jesus has come to "save" you from eternal damnation. So in order for that to be "good news" you must first already believe that you are damned by a hateful God in the first place.
Moreover, according to these fables even Jesus himself proclaims that the path is straight and the gate is narrow and even now only FEW will make it into the kingdom of God.
That's supposed to be 'good news'?

Also, the only one's who make it are those are willing to confess that they are totally unworthy of making it on their own merit.
This religion demands that it's impossible for any mortal man to make it into heaven under his own merit. Only through the "grace" of the sacrificial lamb of a condemning God will you be permitted to obtain eternal life.
And even then who said that it would be 'paradise'?
According to these fables, you would then need to totally forfeit your own free will and do only the will of God as a completely obedient servant to God.
And if this God supports male-chauvinism on Earth, then why should anyone believe that he doesn't also support male-chauvinism in his eternal heaven?
So Christian women should not expect to be permitted to speak their views in heaven. On the contrary they should expect to be paired up with a man by God himself and be totally ruled over by that man, never to speak their own mind again but instead to serve the desires of their husbands, just as their husbands must serve the desires of this God.
And you call that 'good news'?
As far as I'm concerned if we discovered absolute proof that this disgusting religion if false, and that the secular atheists are right beyond any shadow of a doubt, THAT would be 'good news' in comparison with this sick Abrahamic religion.
But not to worry. I've proven that the Hebrew myths are false. So there's no need to fear this God's wrath any longer. The "good news" is that the Hebrew myths are indeed myths and never had anymore merit than the Greek mythology of Zeus.
That's the real 'Good News'.

Christian - A moron who believes that an all-benevolent God can simultaneously be a hateful jealous male-chauvinistic pig.
Wiccan - The epitome of cerebral evolution having mastered the magical powers of the universe and is in eternal harmony with the mind of God.
Atheist - An ill-defined term that means something different to everyone who uses it.

Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do.
Clearly Jesus (a fictitious character or otherwise) will forgive people if they merely know not what they do
For the Bible Tells us so!
