Wow, there are sure a lot of examples there.

In order to prove your point you'd think that
in all that you've copied and pasted that the
words "present to be" would occur once. No
such luck.

And you'd think that if it were proper you'd
get at least a few hits on Google with the
exact phrase "present to be Christian". You
get two, but they're both "...present. To be
Christian...". Can you imagine that? No one
on the web has written those words together
in the context you've used?


I can show you the way to the water, but if you want to drink, it is up
to you.

I pointed out the context to you. There's no rule in English that
requires a dictionary to provide an example of every way a word may be
used. There's also no requirement in English that every phrase one uses
results from a previous, similar use.

Hell, there's no rule that requires a name to be spelled a certain way,
right, "Jordon"?
