      There’s no point trying to change the mind of someone who actively goes out and argues for why Christianity is true when there’s far more fence-sitters you could talk to.

      You’re not wrong. but read that line again. “I suppose it’s improper to…”

      I also contend it’s not my duty, obligation, or place to try and change anyone. as long as they do their thing where it doesn’t impact me, then their beliefs are none of my business.
