Ok while I am totally fine with discussing religion with others I think it is extremely RUDE when ppl come knocking on your door to preach the word of "god" to us "sinners". Not only did that happen but when I politely informed them that I had chosen a "different" path THEY WOULD NOT LEAVE. I tried many times to ask them politely to leave, but the just kept on talking and talking. Finally I told them if they did not leave I'd call the police and have them removed. My brain hurts.

I have an old cabbage you can use for your brain transplant. But I think it would work better if you throw the cabbage at those people! :D

perhaps giving your evangelist friends a brain transplant would be more beneficial :evilway:

I hated to do this, but I actually had to threaten to set my dogs on some one time. ..it was years ago but I must have gone on some sort of blacklist cause I see them walk by but they don't stop. Course it could be because of my BIG dogs!

If I see them walking door-to-door in the summer, i open up my windows
and blast metallica or some other heavy metal music. they wont even
come up on my porch. yes plus having really big dogs help also ( they don't have
to know my dogs wouldn't hurt a fly)

In Oklahoma, telling 'em you're Catholic makes 'em leave just as fast as if you said Pagan......I saw the greatest little story about this kind of thing on another list. It was called "The Other People." I'll try to find it again and figure out how to post it. It was very good and I think you guys would enjoy it.

If you do a search it is already here on Mystic Wicks there are also threads on this topic with how others have kept them from coming back. :)

is just politely say, I have to go, and shut the door!
they will get tired of standing out there :D
why argue with them.

I have an enclosed front porch, & when I'm home the porch door is locked so nobody can get in & ring the bell.
My T.V. is my security system & it's on 24/7 (unless I'm home & rattling the windows w/ the stereo), & it is noticeable even when the shades are down. I imagine that a lot of people get frustrated when they're knocking/ringing & thinking "The @#*!! T.V. is on! Somebody HAS to be here!"
My front door has a peep-hole & I don't answer the door if I don't know who's out there, or it's one of my exes-from-hell.
I've only seen J.W.s in my neighborhood once. Here the Lutherans are the ones who leave leaflets (several times a year).:confused:
Go figure.

You know, this discussion brings up the issue of how the other religions are perfectly fine with invading privacy by knocking down doors, passing out leaflets, talking to anyone who will listen and here in Oklahoma there are some who will stand outside public places and preach. What do you think would happen if we decided to go around doing that?:eek:
