In response to Re: Shenzhen Shiyan Public School (juanisaac)

Have you ever thought of sharing your faith in private, one on one with people who are interested? I myself am Christian, and the school I teach at know it. In the class I do not promote Christianity because it is not my job. I was hired to teach English, and that is what I do. Outside of class I've had people ask me what I believe in and I do then open up to them as to what I believe. I've even had people ask me to give them my bible, and I do because they want one. I've found that those who approach you are the ones really interested, and the vast majority of my students are not. You are thus doing your job and sharing your faith. You can then stay at your job longer and can reach people. You are really setting yourself to be a target for the PSB.

I should say, that I am a total agnostic. I have however made sure I have studied the Bible to support my views; whether, atheist, agnostic, Christian, you should know your onions. How I understand what the Bible requires and says is that there is an unavoidable imperative for Christians to spread the word, even at risk to themselves. With that in mind I do have a huge amount of respect for Mormons and Jehovah' Witnesses, who do make a nuisance of themselves to spread that word. Forgive me, I am not trying to be nasty, I am just trying to understand.

What you are plying(or rather not plying) is a sort of cosy, self-gratifying message which I cannot detect in the New Testament. Nice and safe though, one is unlikely to be confronted with the tedious task of removing thorns from Lions.

I regard that lady poster as no pedestrian; although, I would say extremely deluded.
