Oh man, I've had the same experience before. Except the minister at the guy's funeral I was at was Catholic. He was doing the smoke thing with the altar boys and all, then in the middle of the funeral began to preach. He literally said that anyone who hasn't converted to Catholicism would go to Hell. He wasn't just preaching Christianity...he was seriously saying that only Catholicism would grant you a right into Heaven, and that everyone should convert. He kept saying "there's so many non-believers in the home tonight, Catholicism is the best way of life," etc. My grandpa got incredibly pissed that the minister would preach to the visitors at his friend's funeral like that. It made me really mad.
I don't mind Christianity and I surely don't mind having a lot of faith in your religion, but I can't stand when people shove it down your throat, especially when they say that your own religion isn't right. Religion is simply believing and feeling something inside of you...it's not something that must be done the same way "or you go to Hell."
