Not true! I have an abundance of evidence: How many people have come to your house to evangelize you on Zeus , Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hermes,Hestia or Dionysus. And this is the pantheon of just Greek gods. We could go down the list of hundreds, if not thousands of other gods and ask the same question and get the same answer.
Heck...even Jews don't evangelize. Muslims don't either. The closest anyone can come to evangelical Christianity are a couple of cults (JWs and Mormons, primarily), who go door knockin'. And that's to be expected; for most in those groups will be those who have professed Christ, yet on the last day will hear those dreadful words of Jesus in Mat 7:21-23.
But because Christianity truly does have good news to share with the world, both Christians in full time ministry and not preach the gospel all around the world. The Christian's God is truly unique and has something meaningful to say to the lost in the world, other than "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" or some equivalent.
Night, night.
