My pastor calls those preachers "The First Church of the Obnoxiously Loud"
Your point was good, I feel nearly the same way. Christ's love is spread through love. Showing other people that we love them and care for them. Not just with words, but through action as well. Then they begin to question why we are the way we are. that is when they see Christ shining through us and God's truth starting to challenge them. Then it's all up to the Lord!

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.

I am a christian, and I really hate those pamphlets as well.
Recycling them is the only redeeming quality of it.
When I was younger, I used to make fun of the GRAMMAR in them.
I agree with you whole completely.
Also, I hate it when those kind of preachy people learn that I'm a christian and then they start just telling me I have to go to THEIR church.
As if other churches aren't as good as the one THEY attend..sheesh
