There is an important difference between the case you mention and a more reasonable approach. As you know, I'm a Quaker and if someone is having a hard time, I'll offer my prayers and my holding in the light, if that person wants and would like them. I wouldn't have the arrogance to presume that they do or that they wish to know about what I believe. People know my beliefs and usually ask if they wish for my prayers and I'm fine with that. I belong to an unusual enough sect that people often WANT to know more. (I'm not just one sort of weird :o)
Quakers don't proselytise- people tend to come to us when they're interested in finding out more and all are welcome, whoever or whatever they may be. :o)
