I merely say to any religious callers at the door ................

"We do not discuss religion or politics at the door. Thank you"

and I then immediately close the door


I had 2 nice looking girls both holding bibles, who got that response last week.

I strongly recommend a reading of the Book of Mormon. I found one in a hotel room alongside the Gideon Bible. It was hilarious, full of "begettings" and "it came to pass's". My wife asked me what I was laughing at, and wouldn't believe me when I told her. On the "Drivel" scale, it is second only to Scientology!

Just tell anyone selling religion that,,,,,,,you havn't made your mind up yet as to what sect would be best as you've had JW and others wanting you to join their gatherings and you need to digest who if any could best suit your needs,

and make a sticker,,,,

***I fully support blood transfusions***.......when you see the band walking your road just pin it to the door, :-D :-D

When my children were small, we lived in a fairly remote area, ( prefabs spread out along a dirt track) with a JW house and 'convention' barn up the road.
When they held a convention, we'd always get callers.
A couple came once, and were just about to attempt to convert me, when my two young daughters emerged, completely naked, but covered in mud (don't ask! Natural sun screen?) from their Wendy House - the JW's scarpered very quickly! Apparently nakedness (or muddiness) is a bit of a no-no :-D :-D

A few years ago a relative was approached about taking a job in Salt Lake City. After visiting on business he decided not to peruse it as he didn't feel comfortable there. He would have been an outsider and not because of his nationality.
I was a bit disappointed; there went the opportunity to spend time looking at the LDS records!

How did our own 'Foreign Missioners' convert the 'Heathens' in darkest Africa & elsewhere to Christianity?
