I think part of the problem is a cultural difference, if you like. As far as I can make out, evangelism is quite a normal and acceptable part of American life. In Europe, and particularly in the UK, one's religious belief is often seen as more of a private, personal matter, and many people prefer not to discuss it. So to the British viewpoint, posts of an evangelical nature can sometimes feel more aggressive than I think they are intended to be.
