New Release Review - "Heretic" 
Who doesn't live in fear of answering the doorbell and being greeted by the beaming faces of Christian missionaries? They stand there rabbiting on, thrusting pamphlets in your face, while you try to coax them off your doorstep without coming across as rude. Such encounters usually end with you having to resort to curtness, informing them that nothing they say is going to turn you into a convert while you shut the door in their faces. Then you have that immediate brief pang of guilt. Maybe you should have invited them in and explained in detail why the conclusions you've personally reached regarding spirituality are incompatible with what they're selling? But who has time for that? And anyway, nothing you say is likely to penetrate their belief system.
