@KN- What facts are you speaking of that are so self-evident? You'll have to be a little more specific because I don't share the same life experiences you have had.
@superstarr and paintpooper- Spreading a message and proving something are 2 seperate things. There are lots of better ways to teach people about God then cramming hellfire, brimstone, armageddon and "God hates fags" (No offence meant to anyone) down an unwilling throat. While one of the fundamental doctrines of the majority of the Christians sects is the great commission, the methods of going about it vary widely (especially in the south of the US), and it's human nature (not Christianity itself) that lends itself to more forcefull proselytize, rather then just a simple sharing of ideas. My point was in pointing out the difference between sharing ideas and proving a point and the difference between some Christians and all Christians.

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
