I tend to agree. While Im not a christian, folks who put "who they

This has been my experience as well.


Ayup.


I don't advertise my Christianity to advance my business. I do my best
to do things the way I would want them done, to treat others as I
would want to be treated, and if someone notices and asks why I do
things the way I do them, even if I could make more money doing things
differently - i tell them.


Kudos. Actions speak much more loudly than words. I know some very
devout people whom I can call friends _because_ they don't push it.

Alas, too many religious people don't realize that folks can live
-without- organized religion but still be solid, upright citizens.
AAMOF, I know more good spiritual-but-not-religious people than I do
regular churchgoers.

To me, there are few things worse than unsought evangelicals. I just
had to put up a sign in my front window because they just won't quit.
