AGREED! If you apologize without adding any value to others it is a value-less apology, like spitting saying "sorry" just before spitting in someone's face, then telling the person to accept your beliefs afterwards. I do believe in Jesus and guess what? Jesus taught the message by EXAMPLE! He didn't run around having to CRAM it down the throats of others. They followed Him because His divinity was shown through the way He led his life! He not only CARED about others, but He purely and selflessly LOVED them in every way. If you are supposed to become more like your Creator, use some of the teachings HE GAVE YOU! Stop looking at the negative feedback of others as PERSECUTION! No one is going into your long and pissing in it reasonlessly to accomplish nothing! How can you believe you do work in His name when the results of what you do so clearly contradicts your own beliefs? Socrates meets Hume.
