To the jogger who shouts a fundamentalist religious motto while holding prayer beads associated with another tradition whenever I’m walking past: I get it. It’s your mission to gather up as many “wayward souls” as you can—including people of other faiths—as long as you can shout your message while running in the opposite direction and they don’t outweigh you. Seriously brah, you could use a lesson in marketing, to say nothing of manners. A simple “Good morning” and a smile might open a lot more doors for you than simply yelling religious cliches. Instead, you’ve made me—and most others, I have no doubt—less likely to convert and more likely to file a restraining order against you and your God. ■
