Proselytizing
#20
RE: Proselytizing
Tbh I've had very few experiences of being proselytized. My impression is that christians tend to target people who are 'vulnerable' to conversion. My RL personality is very similar to me on-line- I'm open about my atheism, and assertive with it- so I don't come across as being a good candidate.

In one job I had a few years back, the majority of the staff were fundie christian evangelical yecs. They repeatedly attempted to convert the atheist/ agnostic staff- except for myself. It was sorta disappointing tbh- it seemed at the time that they just didn't have the nerve to try anything with an atheist who could argue their case.

As it happened, one of the agnostic staff did switch to christianity, but I was able to de-convert her. Big Grin
