I want to start a team that goes and starts a dance party around those guys everytime they're out. Nothing like dnacing and loud music to drown them out.

I always wondered why people get so upset when we talk to them about God and Jesus and bring them the Gospel and then the Bible gave me the answer. It says that darkness cannot stand in/near the light. Jesus is the light and he lives within us and these people cannot stand to hear the Word of God because of the darkness inside of them. The truth makes them uneasy and angry because they would not want to change their comfortable sinful ways.
I have no problem with people telling me about their religion. What I have a problem with is people who are clearly not what they claim to be. If you say that you are filled with Holy Spirit, you should act like it. Wouldn't you agree with that?

Totally.
I have known too many Christian who go to church and act the part of the good person and then go home and behind closed doors become evil in their everyday life. So when I meet a Christian today, I am careful to not believe most of what they say until they show to me that they are a good person.

I am not a Christian because I met "good" honest, Christians, but because of my faith in God. People fail and dissapoint us, not God.
I am no longer a Christian because of evil people in the Church. If what I was taught as a Christian was true, then the people in the Church would have been different. The Church I was raised in was filled with hypocrites, now as a Buddhist I am surrounded by loving and caring people. If Christianity was true, it would have the loving people. However, I am only talking about the Church I grew up in, I do not judge you based on my past..
