You are being the stereotypical pushy, bible beating, holy roller...and folks don't listen to a message from a person who comes off that way. If you would chill a lil, maybe folks woould be nicer to you as well. </div></div>

I appreciate you not being so harsh. I do not believe I am defeating Gods message. Hey I have been provoked by many to act this way. I am trying to be nice about.. I really am. Have you read some of the backlash though? I enjoy peace and quite and all but I am not a doormat for anyone. The good thing is when I walk away today.. tommorrow is a new day.. this stuff does not bother me, really it don't. I am doing the best I can. </div></div>

It should bother you when a fellow Christian advises you to lighten up a little bit, that you're causing more harm than good. I'm not the only one that has tried to tell you that. Instead, you reply back that you're in the right because "the truth is the truth".
If you are sincere in your witness, then I think you need to spend some time praying about this. As Paul encouraged Timothy, so I encourage you.
