Um, no, in fact, in my story I said that Bob thought Larry was about as secular as he was (i.e. Larry wasn't acting like a raunchy pagan but just a general "good" person of western society). As for who does that? Lot's of people. Every church I went there wasn't a year that would go by without a preacher talking about how we need to witness to someone. "You don't want to be responsible for Bob going to hell do you? Now turn into your hymnbooks for 451, Praise Jesus the Streets Shall Run with Blood." The NT says everyone should spread the gospel (as in verbally and confrontationally, not just "leading a life" and hoping Bob catches a whiff of your saved righteousness).
