No matter what the cost? What happened to the notion of live and let live?

Well if you are physically sick with a serious ailment and a change of lifestyle will help you live longer you will change. We listen to doctors.
But to believers such as myself and others we believe man has a immortal soul. And there is a final destiny for good and bad people with no in between.
The imposition it appears we place on others has to begin with ourselves first and foremost. For God is holy and commands us to be holy also. In God there is no sin. And he demands of us that we forsake our sin and live righteous before him.
What appears to you as our imposition of will upon you is nothing more than you seeing what God demands of those who follow him.
For us it is not live and let live. For God himself in love for us would not allow us to live in sin and be separate from him for all eternity. He loved us so much that he told us what to do so that we could change our ways and follow him.

If you call sharing light is imposing on you Cockroachs run away from the light also, because they don't want to be exposed. Is that why the light offends you?

Emory because we are commanded to love our neighbors. How do we love you? By standing by and watch you damn yourself to hell. Love tell the other about the great treasure he found and how you could find it!
NOTHING i repeat NOTHING is more important than you being saved and not perishing! Of course if you reject you will forever regret it when you die.

when you think about, in many aspects (religious or otherwise), the average joe is just such an extremist

Salvation is a gift. If you don't want any of it just say no thanks and move on. BTW This is a strange place to be if you don't like evangelism.

It is not our will that we are imposing, but God's will.
