| 54. Not all religious people want to shove it in others' faces |
|
I'm a devout Jew, and while I don't mind discussing my faith with anyone, I would never want to force anyone else to listen to me talk about it. I know that's not everyone, and I've been on the other end of Christians who feel it's their duty to bring everyone to Jesus. But for me, faith is as faith does, not as it talks. And there are a lot of religious people who feel and live and act as I do.
