Christians should not be here to coerce Society, but to convert Society. Until we have made disciples of all Nations.
Perhaps if we re-focus ourselves upon Conversion and not Coercion, Mortal Man will understand that we are not here to control him, but rather to save him.
Or perhaps.... Mortal Man will slander us anyway. (shrugs) Big Deal.
Anyway, the True Christian seeks not coercion, but rather conversion.
COERCION belongs to those who look upon the outward appearance. But that does not save anyone.
CONVERSION, on the other hand... actually sticks. It actually means something. Something worthwhile and permanent and Real.
