I would also add that at a minimum come to know all the sides as well as no side at all as best as you can and thus be informed by it. It is the only honest thing to do. Otherwise admit ignorance and keep your eyes and ears open and your mouth shut so you will not let the rest of the world know of your profound condition of ignorance. Proselytizing when you do not know of all the other religions in the world that you are implicitly advocating against is just ignorance parading as knowledge. It is how faith makes liars out of all that practice it.

Yeah, but avoid those books about why Wicca and other faiths are evil because I know Christian book publishers have many such books to "train" their people about the other religions. Such partisan publicaitons would be like learning about pot form a governmental pamplet. Beleave you me that the Mormon chruch is teaching their missionaries about what to say in order to bring the conversation back to their objective. They are also trained to expect deceptions and so they think they must avoid really understanding any other teaching, because of the paranoid mind set they have been molded into.
Technosoul.
