OK - joking aside....religious/philosophical outlooks are exceedingly personal. You want to leave a brochure with information - fine. You knock on my door and expect me to engage you in debate - no matter how "well meaning" you are, expect to be called out for engaging in arrogant colonialism. I'm not very tolerant of folks pushing their ideology on me especially when that ideology is based neither in science nor historical fact. Faith is great. It lets people exceed their self-imposed limitations..but, the intellectual bottom line is the faith argument is "this is the truth because I believe it's the truth though I can't prove it." I'm not saying you are wrong - but, it is a poor substitute for more measurable observations.
