Are you out of the closet?

Then there's my husband's side of the family, and most of them would not react well.

I do my best to avoid the subject of religion with most of them.

Some of my co-workers wouldn't like it either, and I'm sure some of the parents of kids I teach wouldn't like it. 

Isn't it so curious how Jesus lets everyone choose for themselves,

but so many Christians feel that they have the right to "approve" or "disapprove"
or otherwise apply peer-pressure to non-Christians.

I can't think of any place in the Bible where Jesus told them to do that to non-believers.
