Please stop rushing by avoiding our eyes. Or sneering. Or giving that condescending smirk with a half-shake of your head.

We’re trying to give you information—about churches and mosques and yoga groups and Hindu meditation and the Interfaith guys—just like the guys around back want to tell you how to fix your computer. We want you to know you’re welcome and have lots of choices, if you want them. We’re not going to toss Bibles tied to bricks through your window, or back you into a corner until you come to a service. We’re friendly, not scary. I promise. Otherwise I wouldn’t be trying to give you this frisbee. I don’t like scary people either.

If you don’t want it you can just say “no thanks.” It’s not going to hurt our feelings and we’re not going to even remember, let alone with hold it against you later.

That’s all I wanted to say.
