===========
Now I would like to ask you a question, Jesus told us not to
proselytize, but we are to witness. What does each mean, and what is
the difference? Would this have any bering on my statements about God's
love on RBP?
=============

I'm a 4th or 5th generation atheist/agnostic. I'm not a good one to ask
what a concept like "witness" means. Further, I don't take the words of
Jesus as an injunction. What does it mean to you?

When JW's come to my door, (to witness, I presume) I treat them with
respect but firmly tell them they are wasting their time with me. I'll
give them about 2 minutes and then I politely excuse myself. This is an
intrusion, like telemarketing, but I sense these a very well-meaning
people so I generally give them more respect than I'd give the average
telemarketer. Nonetheless, like the telemarketer, I'd rather they
didn't witness all over my front porch.

frtzw906,
who has never met an atheist who ever wanted to fly planes into office
towers.
