WNeighbor, the things you've talked about, re your biker ministry, have really inspired me. I've felt for a while that I'm called to be a good witness to geeky types - I've always gotten along with nice agnostic geeks, discussing the last Pratchett novel, much better than with the good Christian girls at a church function. And I know I've been a witness to some of my friends in that manner already, because they've said so.

You remind me that even if other Christians don't approve of us hanging out with "sinners" like that, that Jesus does. After all, he went after the same sorts of people, didn't he?

Jesus did hang out with sinners at times. However he also spent a far larger percentage of his time with his apostles. His social roots were still among believers even though his social branches reached out into the world, I guess is what I'm trying to say.
