When religion starts taking personal freedoms from it's followers I think it's time those followers see the light and realize that they're being duped.

That is nuts. We have a "Baptist Temple" a few minutes from where we live in SC that practices these same beliefs. They really are very cult-like when they come to your door attempting to convert you. Scary, ver scary.

I used to have fun with these guys when they came to my door.

One time my brother-in-law and myself were watching Da Bears game and one of these guys knocked on our door. First off, you don't interupt our game. Period. So we decided to have a little fun. We invited him in. We ignored every word of his little "schpeel", offered him a beer, something to eat, etc. All the while we were cussing our heads off at the screen about every play. Gotta hand it to the guy, he lasted about 45 minutes before he got up and said,"look, you guys seem a bit busy right now, so I'll come back at another time." I don't believe he ever did. LOL

Nice. I used to work with a guy who said he took it one step further and pulled some weed and a bowl out and asked if they'd like to join.
