Hello, Yorick. It's good to be here!
At the risk of continuing waaaay off topic: As for my 'rule', I should explain that it pertains to newly met people and those who make it clear they aren't interested. I am not ashamed to be who I am or to discuss my beliefs. But I have found that many people hear the word "Christian" and assume you are some "holier than thou", bible-thumping do-gooder just waiting to convert them from their "evil" ways into some far-from-mainstream sect or other. Those people tend to run quite fast as they look for the nearest exit! I live my life as best I can by the tenets of my faith ( fwiw- Episcopal church, part of the Anglican Communion) and hope that others might see that (less than perfect!) example as a good one, and in doing so, feel less 'threatened'.
Moiraine, you still out there? What picture are you trying to set up for us to see?
