Duane, you miss a small but crucial point: In some (maybe many) cases,
respect for anothers faith means consigning them to hell because we don't
want to offend them. I believe that we should be earnestly instructing
in OUR faith. And to quote you, "*Our desire to preach the un-hindered
Gospel of Jesus, in uniform to the boys, supersedes the doctrine of
*respect for another's faith." And it should supersede. How else are
they going to get saved if YOU don't tell them???
