Public evangelist conversations
#15
RE: Public evangelist conversations
Stephen Fry tells a wonderful anecdote about how his interaction with a Mormon evangelist got him kicked out of Salt Lake City. He was part of a tour, and - for most of it - the guide was pointing out landmarks and talking about the history of Utah. When the group arrived at the huge Temple, the proselytizing started. The guide told the group, 'One of the most wonderful things about the Latter Day Saints is that, why you die, you will be reunited with your entire family for eternity.'

At this point, Fry raised his hand to ask a question and said, 'What happens if you've been good ?'. He was asked to leave.
