You made a lot of incorrect assumptions in your post, so I would advise you don't approach them.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

Perhaps I'm basing my assumptions too much on what I've seen on YouTube and I should not have listed so many assumptions. In terms of religion, I really only pay attention to what Muhammadans post so I have little idea how Christians function when in the public space. It could be that most Christians different to what I understand a typical street preacher to be because I can only claim to have watched street preaching videos by Muhammadans and a documentary about Mormon missionaries. Are Mormons Christian? Some would say no. I'll be interested to know which of my assumptions are erroneous. I can guess though. But let's not risk derailing the topic by having a discussion about which of my assumptions may or may not be correct. I am sure we can continue this via private messages if you wish.
religion is like a penis they both offend people when you whip it out, so why whip out your religion and talk about it.
Keep them both to yourself.

Mormons are not considered Christians based upon the Disciples Creed. Many of the theists I have met have not been vulnerable in any way whether they be Buddhist, Moslem, Jewish, Christian, Hindu, or other. Very few have been upset with Western society (I am, but only because of the harm caused by Western society and that does not have an affect on my religious, but instead political beliefs). I was looking for something extra, but wasn't in the mood for a new religion when I experimented with Islam more than 8 years ago. The religious folk I met were quite upfront with ther religous message based upon their texts; there was no attempt whatsoever at whitewashing the faith.....I was even told my a Moslem professor to not even try pretty much (I guess he could tell what I wanted and what Islam provided was not compatible).

What I said/meant is that the sorts of people who convert as a result of people in the public space are (one of) the things I listed. There are loads of videos of people converting after just short conversations with dogmatists precisely because they were already looking for a new religion or because they were very confused. If you've watched conversion videos of Muhammadans on YouTube you may note that there are some recurring themes. Often they will lament about Western Society or how Christianity doesn't make sense. |
