You may need to look at our view from time to time, if only to discount it.
If I have only given you the opportunity to know what the gospel is, then my
conscience is clear.
I can't drag you into our faith kicking and screaming.
"Many are called, but few are chosen."
Other than that, if you already know the gospel, and have decided to reject
it, and still want to carry on rejecting it, then you need me like you need
a hole in the head.
I'm not gonna come and paint your house for you.
(Well, I would if you want to pay my rate, but you'll get cheaper and better
painters locally.)
I'm here to share my views, and learn something too, the same as anyone
else.

Just as well, really.
There's enough cussin' on Usenet without me taking the bridle off my tongue.
