What do you mean, religious literature?  Do you mean religious, as if to
espouse a certain language, operating system, or hardware (like FORTH,
Unix, or Macintosh)?  Or do you mean RELIGIOUS, as if to push a certain
faith, like Judaism, Hare Krisha, or Seventh Day Adventism?

I think you're talking about RELIGIOUS here, but I find that difficult
to believe.  After all, WordPerfect Corporation is owned and operated by
Mormons, but they don't try to change their customers' beliefs in any
way.

If you are talking about RELIGIOUS, I would find the practice of putting
literature in their products offensive (and unprofessional, like you)
enough to return it and buy from someone else.
