The Christians are trying to do as Jesus told them to preach the "good news"
to the whole world.  Like many worthy causes this goal has been implemented
in many less than worthy ways.  Personally I admire those who evangelize to
people at large but I too am offended by those who cannot take a "no thanks"
as an answer.  

Do you suppose there is a "normal curve" between apathy and intollerance?
