" . . . I believe that the principles established by our founders in 1851 are enduring attributes exemplifying the highest ideals of Christian womanhood,. . . "

So with that being said I wouldn't "evangelize" anyone because I am an adpi, I would "evangelize" someone because I am a Christian.

I am sure that most people have had religious conversations with their sisters or brothers, and I don't feel that because I am a Christian I am not suppose to discuss my beliefs with a professed atheist who also believes that the founders were Christian.

So, my opinion on this thread is YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A CHRISTIAN TO BE IN A "Christian" society, but it would probably be easier if you believed in Christian ideals.

As has been said before, there's not really any difference between "Christian ideals" and just being a plain old good person. Don't lie, don't steal, don't murder. Really, there's really no difference between Christian ideals and good 'ole clean living and being a good person.
