Christian Evangelists Attend Comic-Con

A group of about 30 Christian Fundamentalists holding signs spread out near the Convention Center on Friday morning, July 13.

While waiting to cross Harbor Drive, I struck up a conversation with Joshua, who told me he was a "Christian from Korea." The gentle demeanor of Joshua proved handy, as he told me that Comic-Con attendees walking by "shouted slurs and insults at him." Chief among their comments was that many "churches are against homosexuals getting married."

As I spoke with Joshua, I could hear shouts of "Heaven? Or Hell?" from his co-evangelizers. He told me that not many people were taking the free religious pamphlets and "Jesus Christ: The Real Story" booklets being offered.
