Setting: AD&D 2nd Edition, Forgotten Realms Campaign World

I am up against a brick wall. Can anyone help me come up with the
types of conversation my character should have? He is a 14th
level "Acquisition Specialist" who has had a "religious event"...
healed of a plague by Azuth*, without the required stats or alignment
to become a priest, he nevertheless (at least for a while) wants to
convert the heathen... meaning his old Guild buddies, merchants, other
PCs, peasants, the City Watch, etc...

I'm looking for any and all really annoying slogans you remember from
people who may have tried to convert you from wherever you were at to
wherever they were at... (No profanity please--there may be children
present.)

For example: <pushing 'victim' into a corner at a party> "Have I told
you about how I was washed in the blood?" (a perfectly okay statement
between believers in Christ; but one guaranteed to make other people
very nervous, thinking of horrible pagan rituals).

While I don't want to pick on fundamentalists (because I think I am
one), I realize that some people are worse at evangelism than
others... and my character has a pretty low charisma...

Most of the other players in our game are also Christians--so they will
learn to appreciate how some of these things sound and maybe learn to
share their faith less obnoxiously.

This posting should just be interpreted as soliciting stuff to use in a
harmless fantasy role-playing game, not an attack on _anyone's_ real
world religion. After all, we're all fairly intellectual... aren't we?

Thanks!!!

player family committments, and DM good mood)
