They look more like a bunch of regular Joes that presumably truly believe what they are saying, and they care strongly enough about it to scrape enough together to mass-mail DVD's explaining their beliefs. I don't find that so onerous, and it can even be seen as a caring gesture if you look at it from that perspective.

My own beliefs don't require evangelization, and I often wish that other religions didn't require it, either. Nevertheless, I accept their evangelism in the same way that I accept my friends rantings about the evils of Apple or my other friends in-depth descriptions of the design and construction of bee hive boxes: resignedly. Presumably that's how my friends accept my constant discussion of various at-home programming projects I'm working on or my rantings about climate science.
