If it annoys you, ignore it, because annoyance is as much about intolerance on one side as it might be about inconsideration on the other, and the only side that you control is your own
1)Do you feel the need to mention your religion, or your god every chance you get?
2)If so, why?
Don't you realize this is really annoying to some people? Do you even care?

One example... My cousin was happy, head over heals in love with a guy. Well, it turned the guy turned out to be black. I guess I must have missed the commandment "Thou shall not date a black dude" when I read the bible. Well there was a big fight about that, parents ordered her to stop dating the black guy, she refused, they disowned her. This isn't even in the south FFS, I don't know what is wrong with these people.

I am sick of their constant boasting about attending christian conferences, and how it makes them so blessed. I am sick of their constant boasting about how much money they gave their church. I am sick of it!

JW, I guess take it one step further bothering people on the weekends in their own homes, I don't know if they are always like that though.

Do they bother the hell out of people fulltime, or is it only when they are going door to door?

Maybe I am a bit hard on them, but I don't see the need to put in a status every time you write a check to the church. It does come off as boasting to me.
And thanking jesus that your favorite team won the game, as if it was some sort or miracle, I don't know, seems just wrong.

I guess it seems to me with all the crap going on in the world, there are more important things to be asking whatever god it is you follow to help out with. If that makes any sense.

I think what gets me the most is you will see on TV a man, or woman who has lost their entire family in a storm, or whatever. They will stand there and Thank the "Lord," and say, "this was the Will of God." When someone dies, it is always "the Will of God."
And I am just certain that God and Jesus sit on their sofa drinking beers and watch the football/basketball/baseball game on their big screen. they probably watch NASCAR races too, and bet on who will win.
I don't try to convert people that have their own beliefs.
