calm down, maybe?
Just yelled at some Jehovah's Witnesses working the neighborhood. They came up to the door and I knew exactly what was going on, and I interrupted their spiel and asked them, "Can you surprise God?"
... they didn't understand what I was getting at, and eventually got on about how the earth is so perfect, that it definitely must have a loving creator to set up all this order. At which point I started yelling at them about people starving to death in Africa, and they got scared of me barking at them and left.
But Michael Corleone is right: "Never hate your enemies."
I shouldn't give them the pleasure of being berated. They probably get off on thinking that they've got this huge uphill spiritual battle, and relish feeling oppressed.
Also maybe I should be nicer to human beings :-(
