This is why people of fame are so coy about publicly proclaiming their faith.

It isn’t because of a backlash by non-believers or their atheist peers.

It is because of the avalanche of “you aren’t really a good Christian unless you agree with XYZ of the creed I follow” letters.

I think it is very good of Baldwin to speak of his faith, especially given his notoriety. But one who expresses his faith publicly should be invited to also rationally explain it. “Sanctify the Lord Christ in your hearts, being ready always to satisfy every one that asketh you a reason of that hope which is in you” (1 Peter 3:15).
