AN UNPLEASANT INCIDENT involving atheistic bumper stickers on my car

"We like to believe that we live in an America where reasoned, nonviolent ideas can be freely aired without fear of retribution. That isn't always true.
An unpleasant incident involving atheistic bumper stickers on my car harshly reminded me of the ability of religion to incite violent actions. An agitated individual approached me in a mall parking lot declaring his intention to "straighten out my views."
Only his love of God, he said, prevented him from "bashing my face in.""
