As St. Francis put it, "Preach the Gospel always; when necessary, use words." How we behave, matters.

Francis was a little narrow in his approach...Not to mention unbiblical...But then when did that ever slow down a Catholic???

Ayatollah Khomeini could be said to be preaching the Gospel if you just look at him...The Gospel words must be spoken...And heard...

So ... precisely where do you disagree with St. Francis's statement?

Do you believe that, where preaching the Gospel is concerned, our behavior does not matter?

Except for that unfortunate behavior of his, you mean.
