Not So Cool

Dear Person in the SUV, dressed up in suit and tie and smiling way too much:
You know, I have no problems with about 90% of the religions out there. I have very few problems with many of the 'Christian' sects that send their people out on the streets to pimp their God, and I don't even really mind saying for the bazillionth time 'No, thanks, not interested.'
What I do mind is when you pull up to the gas pump on the other side of the concrete island, get out of your nice pretty upper-middle class SUV and approach me with your little smiling cherub face.
From behind.
At 5:45 am, when there's not many people and cars on the street, and it's still dark out.
You're damned lucky you were smart enough to keep a few feet distance, and smart enough to back off, turn around, and get back in your little SUV and leave when I said 'No thank you, not interested.
Because quite frankly? Innocent evangelical or not, I would have creamed the shit out of you with the gas nozzle if you had pushed your luck and your distance.
Just in case the God you were going to help me find happened to be in the back of the SUV with a knife.
Dumb ass.
