They can be persistent / I always say Thank You but this is a practicing Catholic household but they still try to engage you in chat . I close the door I,m afraid |

One of my friends is a JW and when we meet for coffee or lunch in town she puts it in her diary as having visited my home, glad to say she doesn't push it onto me. |

There does seem to be a Biblical reason for what they do. Jesus sent out his 120 followers in pairs to build up the early church in about 30 AD (or CE). |

after two JWs were quite patronising to me I edited the notice I have stuck to me front door - a notice which tells people I do not buy at the door and I do not wish to have a new drive, trees lopped, new windows, new fascias, do not wish to change utility providers, no charity envelopes AND NO RELIGIOUS GROUPS!!!! Seems to work for the religious groups but still get bothered by the double glazing crew |

They have never been able to explain to me what their stand is on trans-substantiation. |

When he sees them walking down the drive, my brother gets himself ready, then answers the door in the nude! |

Ann you have reminded me of the time 2 JWs came to my grandmother's front door. She explained that she was very busy but if they would come back at 6pm, my grandfather would be delighted to chat with them. They beamed a huge smile and must have thought they had hit the jackpot.,little did they know he was a baptist minister! |

Doing good is religion’s best recruiting tool. Hellfire ranting doesn’t work. |
