The Mormon missionaries came by this evening.

I know Christians who enjoy getting Mormon missionaries, sitting them down and talking to them about their faith. I’ve never felt that way. I suppose I should take the opportunity to tell them what I believe and why, but somehow I doubt I’d have any better luck convincing them than they would convincing me. And tonight when they stopped by, I was right in the middle of a project on the computer. I’m also kind of distracted tonight because of something I’m doing tomorrow.

It’s not as if I’m afraid the Mormons will cast doubt on my own faith. But while I know bits and pieces about Mormon beliefs and history, I probably don’t know enough to be able to get anywhere in a vigorous debate.

Is it selfish of me not to want to get into a conversation with the Mormon missionaries?
