What Can I Give?

In my visits to my field sites I have learned some valuable information about my sub-culture (Cru) that could give them a better reputation with non-believers or other religious groups. Christians as a whole have received a bad reputation due to their own lunatic evangelists and their, at times, highly conservative ways. The lunatic evangelists talk down to people about how they are going to go to hell unless they take up being a Christian. 
For Cru, that is a problem. They are at times unable to have effective outreach to the community because of this bad reputation that Christians as a whole have received. When Cru does outreach, or Evangelism, which is spreading the word of Jesus Christ, they don't talk down to people. They ask certain questions that bring up the issue of religion and have a discussion with people, and answer any questions that people may have about Christianity, namely Jesus Christ. They don't force their beliefs on anybody, they just tell others what their beliefs are. By getting this information out, I hope to better the reputation that Cru has because of the reputation Christians as a whole have received over the years.
