A couple of friends and I were walking to the store just the other day.

Some ancient Korean bitch started preaching to us about Christinaity.

I'm atheist, each of my friends were Muslim. She told us that each of our ideologies were wrong, and we were on sacred land or some other bullshit.

It was really hard to tell what she was saying, very thick accent. We avoided that route on the way back.

I think they're doing it because it makes them feel like they matter, or that they're making a change in the world.
