28. Well, its not really about proselytizing.
It's not like I'd go out of my way to try to convert him completely over to my point of view or anything, just share my reasons why he might want to reconsider taking Christianity very seriously, not challenging his family's faith or anything.

But your point is taken -- I mean, how would I feel if instead of me it had been the Mormon front desk worker, and he used the opportunity to preach to the kid? That obviously wouldn't be very kosher either.

So yeah, I'm just going to back off and try to avoid the issue, even if he goes out of his way to ask me my opinion on the matter. Hopefully he never brings it up again.
