The thing is, if you believe I'm drinking poison, you have *facts* to back it. Or else your attempts to stop me will get you arrested for assault.

This is true. And that is why I do get frustrated at people's attempts to convert me. However, at the same time, I understand their motivation. It makes sense to me that if I shared their beliefs, I'd want to spread those beliefs. Indeed, when I was still trying to be Christian, that was one of the things I struggled with, a feeling of guilt over not evangelizing.

It's just hard for me to understand how a person could hold Christian beliefs and *not* at least feel like they should evangelize.
