Jesus is alive

Answer 3

The best thing to do is stay away from them. They are not sane people.

Answer 4

They scare me too.

Answer 5

I'm supposedly evangelical--we don't all go around trying to convert people.  If you are afraid of them, I have serious doubts about your ability to function in life.  When JWs come to my door, I say I'm a Christian and am not interested in discussing it with them.  Subject closed.  No further problelms.  

Answer 6

My litmus test is telling them that "God's original plan was to hang around a bunch of naked vegetarians in a garden."  If I get an adverse reaction, then I can assume they haven't read past chapter 1 of Genesis and intelligent discussion isn't possible. :-)

Answer 7

Just like you do with non-religious zombies: Shotgun to the chest.  

Answer 8

Firmly tell them "No" in a loud voice, and back away slowly.  

Answer 9

I'm sorry that you have met some evangelicals who are scary, but I am not. I have normal conversations every day with people that I work with, people that I meet on the train, and my neighbors. I feel that it is my responsibility to earn the right to share my beliefs with you. Most of my evangelical friends are the same. However, even most of the "scary" ones have a good motive. They fear for your future and want to share the love of Jesus with you. Cut them some slack and just say, I'll think about it-just give me some time and space.

Answer 10

Who isn't afraid of them. I saw Jesus Camp too... it is almost sad that people believe that... but more scary than sad.

I don't know you, but if there is a heaven, you are the kind of person that will go there.

Answer 11

We all are, Koli,  we all are.    

Answer 12

they are a very scary lot, that's a fact.

run - run fast and hard away from them.

Answer 13

Oh really?

I would think global warming, terrorist attacks, drive by shootings, rapists, muggers, pedophiles, not getting into college, (or a good grade school in your case) not getting a good job, or mom and dad cutting your allowance, would be a bit more alarming.

Eh, maybe you just don't get out much.

Answer 14

I don't blame you.  Just tell them god is fake and then laugh in their face no matter what they say next.
