I'd say my argument was that the counter arguments here weren't really about proselytism but rather about when its ok and how it should be done....
Many religious people think their views are just as true as scientific views, if not more-so. That is why many have tried to push things like...
Sure, from our outside perspective it's not ok, but from their perspective it quite arguably is (depending on the belief.) To use an analogy, is...
Your criticism though is about the manner in which some people proselytize and about their beliefs. (Not proselytism itself.) Certainly there...
Not liking someone coming to your door is a criticism of the way in which someone proselytizes, not of proselytism itself. And also, what is wrong...
A lot of people, particularly those on the left, seem to be very much against it. I've never really figured out the logic behind it. I suspect its...
What do you think is wrong with proselytizing? I fail to see anything inherently wrong with it by itself. There could certainly be some criticism...
A lot of people would presume that I don't respect religious people, or that I think they are all stupid or bigots or whatever. They would...
I'd say most Americans like foreign accents. The only thing you should have to worry about is people thinking you are British. A lot of people...

The problem is that there is a very large variety of views of what is "right and wrong." It's not something set in stone. So my previous statement...
In my view, it would be an hour well spent. I've probably listened to it at least 5 or 6 times by now. Of course, I'm a big fan of Steve, so that...
I don't believe in ESP either, but this is a different topic. You didn't watch my video. :( Although truthfully I didn't expect anyone to....
I just really couldn't disagree more here. Believing false things is just bad. Would you not say that believing gays are immoral or should be...
I'm not trying to attack you or anything, and I did say that I was going to debate... Also, just because you experienced them doesn't necessarily...
