Some, apparently, feel that we MUST choose one. I guess that's one reason a majority in the U.S. would vote for a gay, female, Muslim before they'd vote for an atheist.(http://www.outsidethebeltway.com/archives/black_president_more_likely_than_mormon_or_atheist_/) I have been told more than once that freedom of religion does NOT, in fact, include freedom from religion.

Fortunately, every one of them (so far) has been extremely polite and left graciously when I said that I wasn't interested in their offering. I've often wanted to get into a real discussion with these door-to-door preachers, but they always seem to come by when I'm trying to get the kids dinner some other suitably chaotic time. @newbie athiest: I haven’t had the opportunity to deal with either the JWs or the Mormons; in my neighborhood we get the evangelicals.

I plan to chase them off my doorstep with a vocal barrage of insults and veiled threats given that they have CHOSEN to invade my personal space with their hate filled screed.

These people need to be told, in no uncertain terms, that not everyone wants to hear their nonsense and we damn well don’t want them imposing themselves and their beliefs on us.

Thanks for loaning me your soapbox
