'You may not be a Christian and wonder why anyone would want to be. The
religion that inspired the Crusades, launched witch trials, perpetuates
religious broadcasting, presents too-often boring and irrelevant church

puffy haircuts, sappy answers to tough questions, and other adventures
in missing the point... it doesn't make sense to you why anyone would
want to be "in" on that.'
