“What most bothers the public about evangelicals is that they are ‘too pushy with their beliefs.’ That is, people don’t like being witnessed to. That evangelicals care about non-Christians’ temporal problems, for which Jesus can help them, and their eternal destiny, for which Jesus offers free salvation, does not matter.” - Gene Veith
