Come off it Rich; you don't seem to have any problems with your own promotion
of your religious notions.

Maybe I'm exceptionally dense, but I don't see what the problem is with
believing that your opinion is correct, and with trying to convince others
of it.  And your cries of "manipulative proselytizing!" simply do not
correspond to reality.  What is so coercive about giving out leaflets (which
is all that those evil Baptist have been accused of so far)?
