Kind of shaken up. Not sure why Christian proselytizers get to me so much. At my PT session at SDSU, a young man approached me and enthusiastically asked me how I'd been. He said that he had worked with me 5 years ago, which is plausible. I guess he looke familiar somehow, because I introduced myself, and asked him how he'd been. At that point, he just said he was awesome or ecstatic or some such. And he had a really severe smile on his face. Very enthusiastic about something.
Then he shouted out that he was so happy because the Lord was present (or some such. I can't remember what he said about the Lord). He asked me whether he could pray for me. I said that I am an Atheist. He said that that was OK. He loved praying for atheists. He proceeded to put his hands on my shoulder and call out some prayer, after which I just ran on into the exam room.
The lab teachers, much to my surprise, did walk up to me and asked what had happened, and then said that he had bugged some other people in the hallway who were waiting for their PT as well. Nobody seemed to know who he was, and he obviously faked ever being a PT student. I guess time will see how this all pans out.
