I think Onetarians also sequester themselves in their own little communities/circles/etc. and therefore can easily be considered to be elitists. I am not saying that, I am just saying that is the perception....true? False?
I don't see a whole lot of evangelistic effort being spent converting the mainstream church...just like the admonition of going into a bar or strip club to witness to the hairy unwashed.

And, "hairy unwashed?"
