The "Jews for Jesus"--and as you know, I am well aware that you aren't really one of them but just affected this cute new persona in an attempt to disguise yourself since changing your screen name ten times hasn't worked--used to CONSTANTLY hand out their flyers at the World Trade Center. They have cartoons and little witty sayings and then invite you to a Messianic Church. They were always down in the PATH well--don't know where they went after the buildings fell.

But there definitely are other Christians who hand out tracts. I've known some who do.

I've never seen real Jews hand out tracts--they don't tend to proselytize and they aren't looking for converts. They did used to have that big truck that drove around the city blasting info about Moshiach, though.

Jews don't proselytize (to non-Jews); this is true. Some Chabad members will reach out to other Jews, though. Some (men) are out in Union Square and they will ask certain people, "Are you Jewish?" before proceeding. They will be more visible over the next month or so because several major Jewish holidays are coming up.

I've seen a woman in the Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center last night approach certain women.

Some Christians will certainly attempt to proselytize; that's what missionaries do!

I may have to borrow that bear.

Does anyone else find this comment from the OP disturbing?

Repealing the First Amendment is definitely a non-starter.

I don't take anything this OP says seriously. He's a long-time troll poster who has been here under a number of screen names--River Edge, JuliganO, Nunnor, OneLess, a few more that he abandoned when we called him out right away. He starts out on the NJ Forum and always makes his way to the Religion forum, especially on Judaism. He has two main areas of interest: The "blue laws" in northern New Jersey, and Jews. In most of his screen names, he comes across as an anti-semitic fundamentalist nutjob. In this latest incarnation, he is pretending to BE a Jew--a Jew who believes in Jesus but is not Christian. There's no such thing. He slips up enough contradicting himself that we know it's him and I get a kick out of calling him on it. Last time I did when he was JuliganO, he sent me a nasty DM telling me to keep my mouth shut.

Completely false and nonsense. You may confuse me with somebody else. Indeed, you may be a troll yourself creating many different usernames to bash peoples opinion.
