Subject: RE: BS: Religious Canvassers
I guess it's like(I don't mean to be glib with people's beliefs, it's the appraoch I object to) telephone cold callers wanting to sell you a garage door or a new roof - if I needed a garage door I would seek one out. Often the impression is that the door-knockers are somehow preying on vulnerable and lonely people, sometimes (not always) to fleece them of their meagre cash. Now, no matter how devout YOUR faith is, the fact is that there ARE some unscrupulous people who DO prey on the vulnerable - heck, some of them are billionaires...well probly not now, but y'know, before God decided capitalism needed a bit of a kick up the arse for being so greedy, that is, a few weeks ago...BTW, didn't JC share all his stuff with all his mates? He wasn't a (SHOCK HORROR) socialist, was he???!!!

Goodbye (aka God be with ye)
