Why is it necessary for anyone to proselytize? Either your faith is attractive to others or it isn't.
Because you don't know if the religion is attractive unless someone tells you about it.
If you were about to walk off a cliff and someone else knew it. Would you expect them to keep silent about it?
If you love people, and you want everyone to be a part of a wonderful thing, then you are obligated to share the Word. It's part of being a worthy person. Worthy people sacrifice themselves, and share. They will risk their own lives to help others.
And missionaries do risk their lives, and have always been slaughtered here and there. As have Catholic nuns and priests.
People don't turn themselves into targets and risk their reputations on something they don't believe in. And if a person believes there is a Heaven, and God, and there is one sure way to get into it, and that one thing doesn't involve hurting anyone at all, why on earth wouldn't they do it?
