I seem to look like I need "saving" and I've become a magnet for them! It's so annoying!

by the way I do not, have never, and will never hang around christians.
I also would like to add that I agree with many satanic beleifs, and am currently reading the satanic bible.

They STILL haven't learned that the more they pester, the less people are willing to listen.
That's why everyone hates telemarketers. And Jehovah's Witnesses.

Because that is what most are taught to do. And they, like many non-Christians, make assumptions about people based on the way that they look. Maybe there's something about your dress or behavior or hair-color or whatever that they're uncomfortable with, so feel the need to change it. Keep in mind that for many (unfortunately not all) Christians proselytizing is their way of trying to help and protect you. Just tell them you're not interested, or that you have your own beliefs, if they don't listen just walk away they'll get the hint eventually.
Edited:
If they've somehow found out maybe not about your interest in Satanism, but just in the occult they may have decided to "save" you from it. Just explain that you've been told about Jesus before and just have no interest in Christianity. But, I'd kind of be a little leery of telling them any more. You don't want any "God-warrior" types around.

Well, I don't know what you look like, but if you look like your avatar (purple hair), then you don't look like the norm. Now, keep in mind, I am not saying that is a bad thing. I'm a Christian with 6 tattoos and sevearl holes on my body. Conservative Christians have a tendency to reject what they do not understand, and they assume that someone who isn't the norm, also isn't Christian. Yes, that is wrong. I know it is.
The second part of this is the fact that scripture instructs us as Christians to spread the news of the gospel to the world. I can tell you about Christ. I can answer your questions. I can tell you why I believe, and how I practice my faith. However, I am not responsible for the choice you make. That is where many Christians fail. They believe they are responsible for what you make. Truly, we are not in the business of saving. We are simply in the business of getting the word out.

Because Christ is a savior.
Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, being himself the Savior of the body.
In like manner also Christians is a savior too.
James 5:19 My brethren, if any among you err from the truth, and one convert him;
James 5:20 let him know, that he who converteth a sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall cover a multitude of sins.

Christians arnt trying to annoy you, they are trying to look out for you. This subject is nothing you should take offense to. Christians are brought up to believe that they are to help man kind in general. You should feel grateful that you have people in your life that care enough about you that want to help you. If you arnt interested in being christian or getting help with the little problems we all have in life, you can just say kindly that your not interested. Any good Christian would back off and leave you alone.

Jesus said something known as "The Great Commision"
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
Matthew 28:19 - 20
Why you are approached more than others? Maybe it is God.

I find that a bit odd. I cannot remember the last time...ANYONE tried to save me. You must be a very lucky lady to have so many people care about you.
The anger Sista...the anger! Take a pill.
Maybe you just think there is an army of Christians hoping to save you because your in a negative mindset. Read more abou self indulgent Satanism. That will cheer you up.

I know.I go door to door sales.and last week this man just kept on trying to get me saved. I told him I am an ordained minister .he kept on like a crazy man.but do you know your going to heaven, have you done this have you done that, My people or all wonderful Christians and I have never seen them try to go after someone like that..They all just live a Christian life and that's that.
Sometimes my mother would be lead by the spirit to witness to someone.and EVERY time she was lead that person came to God.she didn't push,she just witnessed.out of love.two people she lead to the Lord became ministers.My mother had real love in her.its ONLY when the spirit of God leads me. do I ever say something about God.or in just conversation I like bring up God because God is close to me, I am not saying it to change anyone.I had a guy live with me for years helping me because i had been hurt in an accident, he didn't believe in God,I never tried to change him.that's his business,not mine.
a friend of mine told some devil worshipers to not come back to his lake were they had their ceremony's with the circle of fire, when he first bought his fifty acres they did, they never left the property.make sure you do that on your own land.
when you die you will be brought fighting all the way to hell by demons.but that's your business.not mine.

LOL, I know what you mean. It's just part of their belief. They think they're doing you a favour when in fact they're just trying to cover their own butts for all the transgressions that they've already committed.
I wonder how Jesus will respond when someone tries to save Him?

Their noble intentions often cross the line from preaching to harassment. Fortunatelly, not all of them are the same, and some accept you just the way you are without trying to convert you by force.
