The Power of Silence
 
One of my personal principles to which I try to adhere is to never discuss politics with people who do not agree with me.  Though I’m not always successful, I give it a good shot.  Sometimes silence is the best response. 
 
It’s the same with faith.  Nobody ever argued and “logicked” a person into belief.  On the other hand, though, I do make it clear that I am a man of faith and I will be glad to do my best to share my belief with anyone who is interested.  Occasionally, I have found, the curious or intrigued seek me out in private.   
 
My point:  Let your actions speak.  They are very often more powerful than any words.  — jri
 
Then the high priest stood up before them
and asked Jesus, ‘Are you not going to
answer?  What is this testimony that these
men are bringing against you?’  But Jesus
remained silent and gave no answer.”
    –    Mark 14:60-61
