Well Christians haven't done this in a long while so I am assuming you are asking about Muslims and Mormons?

I could ask why secularists did the same thing in WW2? Any takers?

If we keep Christianity a secret, what kind of crappy people would we be. Especially since we believe heart of hearts that Jesus is a forgiving and loving God.

The Jews don't recognize Jesus. He is the one who is said to have given the command, "now go forth, and multiply."

Sometimes that's taken to a zealotous level, ie. the crusades, the inquisition, etc.
