Something About Preaching To Something Like A Choir…
I work at a grocery store that gets its fair share of proselytizers. I’ve just finished bagging a customer’s groceries when he gives me a pamphlet for a local church and turns to leave.
Me: “Sir, I’m already a Christian. Would you like this back?”
He looks dumbfounded for a second.
Customer: “…You’re already a Christian?”
Me: “Born and raised.”
Customer: “You have a church?”
Me: “Yes.”
Customer: “…That you’re happy with?”
Me: “Also, yes.”
He deflated, sadly took his pamphlet back, and slunk off. I told my mother about this later, and her theory was that he didn’t expect “the help” to be “so enlightened” as to comprehend religion.
