My uncle is a pastor (Vancouver, WA) and was in Pakistan with a group spreading the Christian word in the most unstable Muslim country on earth! He's brave but crazy. Their security were equipped with AK47's.

He told me but it escapes me at the moment. I would have worn some kind of bullet proof protection in this country. He's walking the city streets in this picture with nothing but a few armed guards.
 
Gee, I dunno. There's something about proselytizing with guards armed with weapons right beside you. Like some sort of unfair advantage or added pressure.

Pastor: "Repent!" [sound of rifle bolts clicking into place]

Sinner: "uh, OK."
 
I would honestly think he has a semi-death wish for martyrdom.

The epitome of hypocrisy? :dunno:

Beats having him at my doorstep pushing AWAKE brochures through the mail slot. :sigh:

That's the trouble with religious people. They have absolutely no respect for other people's beliefs. :tsktsk:

The Jehovah's Witnesses are obnoxious enough, and they don't even carry heat.
 
Sounds like a good way to "lose your head".:dunno:

Depends on where you are. Pakistan is a good start.

Otherwise, it's pointless. If you've ever debated religion with a Muslim, there is no way you're going to get him/her to belief in anything else.

I have two fundamentalist christian siblings........same thing. I don't debate religion. I'm more of a Universalist. I'll figure it out when I get there. If there is no "there", big deal.

Interesting take. I'd say it's exactly the opposite around here. Endless threads talking about "those crazy Christians" and similar put-downs in other posts, yet off the top of my head I can't think of any threads started by the "religious people" on the board pushing their beliefs on others.

Hey, that's the stuff Old Testament legends were borne out of!
 
Pakistan must have more freedom than here. Can you imagine a Muslim evangelist walking the streets here, with bodyguards carrying machine guns? The Feds would put him into prison for 40 years, and the media would try to scare us all.
 
Imagine if we had Muslims trying to convert CHRISTIAN AMERICANS! Holy shit, what a day that would be.
