	Sorry, Karl, but I don't buy your argument that "The statistics
reflected by current articles in net.religion on my machine reflect the
proselytizing tendencies of Christians and non-Christians". (Note: my
condensation, not Karl's.)

	Happily, most Christians, Jews, Muslims, and other regligious folks seem
to be able to get through most of life without trying to deliver "The Word"
(whatever that is for each sect) to everyone else around them.

	It's the ones who volunteer endless streams of ideology, theosophy,
and so forth to anyone in shouting range that irk those of us who would rather
be left alone; perhaps these few extremely annoying people are the reason we
sometimes over-react when the topic comes up.
