I'm with you. Even when I was involved in the church, I never felt right pestering people. If they approached me and asked I would reply with whatever "knowledge" I had at the moment. I didn't ever fully believe it anyway so how was I supposed to "witness" to people?

I can mostly tune out the church billboards, except one that loudly declares, "When you die, you WILL meet God". Like seriously? No scripture or anything. Just a number to call. That one really gets on my nerves.

As an example: in high school really 70% of the girls in my class were off-limits to date, even had they been interested, because their parents would never have allowed them to date someone that did not go to their specific church. And that's not just a polite excuse I've these conversations happen, both youth to youth and youth to parent. I've seen a Methodist mother forbid her son from dating a girl in his class because she was a Lutheran or something, and I've seen a couple of kids negotiating like who would need to go to whose church first to meet the parents and get approval.

That's the least violent or directly confrontational example that comes to mind. I've had groups of people try to pick fights with me, I've been locked in multiple variations of the same hour-long debate about evolution with literally every single other kid in the classroom across multiple years, the rotc kids used to play keep away with the Jewish rotc guy's yarmulke, it's surreal.
