Paul Dubuc explains why his faith is an evangelical one.  This is all
well and good, and indeed if Christianity is true it seems incumbent on
the believer to spread it.  However, those of you who think you know
everything are annoying to those of us who do; or in other, more
reasonable, words, people who are as sure as evangelical Christians
are about questions that I regard as deep and difficult usually come
off as shallow, cocksure, and generally obnoxious.  I do not apply these
terms to anyone on the net, as I have not seen anything I consider
evangelism on the net yet; therefore I don't have any impressions of
the people who practice it here.
