Thank you, Mike. As for you, Andy....
Let's just say you don't know much.
pros·e·ly·tize v. frml. -tized, -tizing, -tizes to try to persuade
someone
to change (their religion, political party, etc.):
Political candidates proselytized among workers to vote for them. -n.
proselyte
Saying you were touched by something you read in a church bulletin is
proselytizing? Grow up! And that's NOT a disclaimer.
