It may be more that those who are of other religions are.
So, he was multitasking! ;)
Seriously though, I've been in the missionary field for more than 30 years now, and don't feel this was/is likely to produce any converts to Christianity. More than likely, those on the plane who had not yet accepted Christ would have felt more like *captives* for the duration of the flight!
Perhaps next time (if there is one), the Captain might consider using Chick Tracts instead. The one entitled "This Is Your Life" is inoffensive, and gets right to the point. (I use it myself).
OTOH, maybe they will show "The Passion" for the in-flight movie one of these days. What do you think? (Me neither!).
The bottom line is folks, Christians shouldn't HAVE to be *told* to share the Gospel with such a "captive audience!" LOL! I sure would have, but using a much more casual (AKA back-door) approach.
How many here are aware that of all the people in the US of A claiming to be born again Christians today, only 5% have ever shared the Gospel with ANYONE!?
Sobering thought, no?
In the love and peace of Christ, - Anij.
