A Rabbi was asked: "Why does a truly religious person not go around trying to convert everyone to the faith, while the evil are constantly trying to persuade others to join in their wickedness?"
The Rabbi replied: "The truly religious person walks in light, and is not afraid to be alone, while the evil walk in darkness and are desperate for company."
(The Hasidic Anthology).

Thank you for these bits, Peter. They are truly appreciated.

I'm thinking I should print this one out to hand back to my Saturday visitors when they ask me to read their literature...

That is excellent! And, yes, Sheye, good thing to have on hand for any of the doorknockers!

Thanks!

Do your regious door-knockers bring their children to the door, or is it just where I live?

No, Sham, they bring their kids over here, too.
