    Well - it's time for little payback on those annoying door to door bible thumpers.  And, payback is a bitch! |

        While I agree with the annoyance... the "conversion was too quick and unbelievable (5/10)

        - Well you are right!  However, I wanted the quickness of conversion to be in direct proportion to my feelings of being perturbed at the time.  Thanks for taking the time to comment.

        I saw the ending to this one coming, but that's the curse of being a scribbler. Short and nasty with no redeeming features, just right for the moment. I recommend it to all those with a sense of humor and an itch to respond to those benighted folks out to save us from ourselves. (7/10)

        - Thanks for the review.  I value your opinion.  The story came about after being interrupted by these folks while writing another story!
