8. they are VERY GOOD about the social gospel..

meaning, they are more concerned about literally feeding the poor and helping the destitute than they are about whether you are "right with the Lord" (no one would EVER ask you that there, anyway.) Your relationship to deity would be between you and whatever you conceive of God to be. They do not believe in a literal, burning hell (then again, Billy Graham says he doesn't, either!)

They are not pushy but would be there when you need them.

Good luck!
