: But perhaps Mel feels God calling him to spread the word. Ever hear of missionaries? You see, in this, as you see it, 'nonsensical' religion of ours,
Please don't put thoughts in my brain. I don't think Christianity is nonsensical at all. Personally, I've got plenty of love for and belief in Jesus. I simply think that modern practice of Christianity diverges from his teachings, and therefore I've chosen not to enter that religion. If you find meaning in it then more power to you.
: God calls some Christians to share our beliefs. And, once again, it being in our belief structure, we have every rite to do so. Just as you have every rite to compare something we think is sacred to something we think is sacrilege.
I don't really know what you're referring to here. Do you mean when I compared Jesus to Buddha?
I like the irony of you using "rite" here instead of "right". It's fun!
