RB, would you treat them the same if they were selling magazines for the local high school? I mean tell them they are trespassing. Do you have signs that say no solicitors? Most Christians have a true desire to tell you something that has made a profound change in their life and they would like to share it with you. It's not like the Taliban that will just beat the crap out of you for letting you wifes ankles show. A polite "no thank you" will suffice in most cases. I realize that there are some denominations that will try to force their beliefs down your throat but that is not the norm for the majority of evangelicals. BTW if you have a sidewalk to your door and don't have the signs it's perfectly legal for a person to walk up an knock on your door. I'm not trying to start an argument here but the law is pretty specific about trespass. Still there are some on this forum that go ballistic when they see a post where someone presents himself as a person of faith. Why not just accept them as a motorcyclist with a belief system that is not shared by yourself and move on with the topic of the thread itself. Or does bashing someone on a personal level increase your self-worth? Think about it. It's a rhetorical question to all who scream for tolerance for gays, agnostics, atheists, Honda Gold Wing lovers. crystal worshipers or whatever. That prolly at least a nickel's worth. Have a Nice Life.

You guys should start a thread to argue religion, this thread is for looking at pictures.

I miss that cacti, Rob. I don't intend to argue religion on this site. I will speak out against those who have to go ballistic when someone happens to display their faith in a post. Some of the remarks are to juvenile to to allow them to go unchallenged.

LOL Bill! This is way too entertaining! If Wayne ever decides to write a book with these Blog posts for material no one will believe it much less pay for it.

Anything you are passionate about can become a religion, Bill. In your case from all the reports I've about you, it's the religion of stupid fast speed on two wheels. I use the word sutupid in a over-the-top context. Are you religious about speed on two wheels or are all of those links you posted after falling leaf a hoax?

Thanks to those posting PICTURES and not political diatribe or social commentary. Per the title of the thread, this is for photos not specifically about motorcycles, not blather-de-joir.

The unmanagement.
