That's the key point though - no matter how many people consider his
faith to be "merely a hobbyhorse" - to him, it's clear that those people
are unambiguously wrong. His faith is so important that it must be
discussed absolutely everywhere, regardless of whether such discussions
are appropriate. I'm sure he discusses it with strangers he meets in
public restrooms. I'm sure that he discusses it loudly in the middle of
the performance of a play (even if the play has nothing to do with his
faith). I'm sure that if he were watching firemen rescuing people from a
burning building, he'd insist on delaying those firemen in their rescue
efforts by discussing his faith with them (those firemen might be facing
their death, after all - it's important that, if they die, they do so
believing the truth about Jesus). OK - I might be exaggerating on that
last one :-) - I hope!
That's because discussing his faith is so IMPORTANT that there are no
inappropriate contexts for discussing it - as far as he's concerned. The
rest of us are left to suffer for his lack of proper judgment - which is
justified because we're all WRONG.
