the God Squad.
I don't know if it's a profession, but they don't seem to do anything else so here's my input.

There's a guy in town (Bristol, some people may know) who spends his days shouting about the coming of christ and how we will all die for our sins. There's normally someone else handing out leaflets telling us how to redeem ourselves and such rubbish.

Now, I haven't got too much of a problem with believers (i'm atheist) but I get enough opinion forced down my throat as it is and quite frankly, if I'm a sinner and destined for hell, then I don't care. No do the rest of the people walking past wishing that he would shut the hell up.

Are they really,
or are they just doing it so they can feel fuzzy and smug? People aren't going to convert just because they read a leaflet.

That's the get out clause, innit? Like people who are cunts "jokingly" so that if you take offence they can go "Blummin hell I was only joking ... "
But I agree with you. There were two in Brixton back in the day that were marvellous - both dressed in sort of ... Egyptian style gear. One HUGE guy, and one tiny little one. The big guy was like a rapper: "Yeah yeah - an he will damn those sinners damn those sinners like the women wearing trousers and the homo-sex-uals, he will damn those sinners gimme John 64 my brother!" and the tiny guy, who had an equally tiny voice, would squeak into a microphone "And the Lord said that the women must not bee seen and that he who lies with another man ... "

Is that the guy who stands outside BHS in Broadmead?
I have told him to shut the fuck up many a time.

They are there ALL THE TIME.
I just ignore them best I can. I wonder what their percentage success rate is in conversion?

There's no one like that in Hull that I've seen
If there was, I'd be tempted to stand next to him and rattle on about evolution

You can't find proof of evolution in Hull.

Ha! yes I know EXACTLY the guy you mean, seriously wish they could lock him up for breaching the peace sometimes, It's bad enough having the shouty chav's and the people who insist on playing music on their phones out loud (buy headphones you dipshits it's not that I'm old your music really does suck), yet somehow he even manages to drown them out with all this outdated religious nonsense.
