Why?  The religious groups can screw off too.  Whether you're trying to
sell me viagra or your idea of god, I don't want to hear it.  Religious
groups have to obey "no trespassing" and "no soliciting" signs on houses
(really, who wants to be interrupted by a knock on the door from some
Holier-Than-Thou jagoff telling you how you're going to burn because you
have a different philosophy than theirs but if you change your entire
way of thinking to be just like them you can be saved?).  They should
have to obey it on inboxes too.
