At first I am mildly amused but if they start getting too arrogant or go on and on never letting me say a word then I may start to get impatient.
If I get a chance to thank them for their concern and inform them that I am already a Christian and they back off I am ok.

LOL I get aggravated a little yes... Some people think Christians should LOOK a certain way... Like the woman should look like "Little house on the Prairie"... and I most def don't look that way... and they base how you look, to how in touch you are with God, on how spiritual you are. Also it seems that if you look too good... you might not be spiritual enough...
LOL these are extreme though, most Christians I know are accepting and realize the Body Of Christ is made up of many parts, some similar, some totally different, but that each part is vital, to the whole body..

I get offended/irritated when new believers talk to me as though they have all the answers and know way more than I do, when I've been a believer for most of my adult life. Not saying that I know everything, because I don't, but if you just came to Christ last week, don't get in my face like you've got a private line to God.

i get offended when believers try to talk me into their religion, like they hold all the right answers and i have been waiting all along for someone like them to come and show me the error of my ways and then point me on the way to salvation.
That's what makes me feel offended. I'd rather they keep it to themselves. I am an adult, and trust me, everyone in america have heard about christianity.

No,but i am when and if he or she reveals that he thinks that anyone who does not agree with him/her on every little point of theology,discipline or 'worship aesthetics" must be a "heathen" or some sort of damned unbeliever or apostate..

I often felt that when I was a Christian. People in my church would look down on me because of the way I dress. Its not like I wore fishnets and a whip. My style of dress is simply all black.

I try to make it clear as soon as necessary that I am a born-again Christian. It tends to smooth that out.

yes, it shows them to be arrogant and rude and that closes my mind off to any further discussion.
That is the best way to create a real enemy.
