An unusual thing happened to me this morning as I was waiting in line at the grocery store to pay for 6 cabbages I needed for lunch (I am a chef at a corporate dining facility). There was a family in front of me paying for their doughnuts and the 12-13 year old daughter proudly exclaimed and told me that I was going to hell. I replied “Well that’s swell”, simply because it rhymed. She then lays into me about accepting Christ or else and letting Jesus into my heart and so forth. As they were leaving and I am putting cabbage on the conveyor her mother congratulates her on her witnessing and sharing the gospel.
Is this normal Christian behavior or did something happen over the last few years that I missed?
That was another thing I thought, that perhaps my basket full of cabbage somehow labeled me as a Satanist or something even more diabolical. Because really, who buys cabbage at 7 in the morning other than Satanists.

Here is the thing that really gets me; I do not dress like my avatar in public. I have on a blue long sleeve cotton shirt, cotton khaki pants, black shoes and socks and a regular belt. I look like every other corn fed Midwestern slightly balding 40ish dude. There is/was nothing, other than my obscene fetish with cabbage, that would have labeled me as a non-Christian worthy of such attention.
I am wondering if she does this to every stranger she meets or if it is something she can’t control. The cashier was also weirded out by the outburst.
