    Yet another example of people interpreting Christianity based primarily on an ethic of obedience to unquestionable rules rather than on an ethic of love.

    How can you honestly say you love a person you've never met that lived 2000 years ago?

    For me, it's a combination of things. I love Him out of gratitude for what He has done, is doing, and will do someday; out of admiration for His character, personality, and principles; and out of respect for who He is.

    I kind of doubt the effectiveness of these "street preachers". I would however defend their right to preach on the public street corner. They cross a line if they put their heads inside someone's car. I have never seen one do that.
