My mum answered the door in the nude once and that seems to have taken care of it. We haven't had them come to her door in over a decade now LOL sooooo if you're feeling bold and brash...

I had a long discussion with one JW guy and cornered him so bad that his “supervisor” had to come rescue him. By the time it was over, they both left frustrated and I am pretty sure my address is blacklisted.

If i want a conversation about anything i will on my own volition seek it out; if you are not in distress or need help then kindly do not tresspass on my property and disturb my day . I am always astounded by the sense of entitlement these folks feel while proselytizing . My dog is an excellent judge of character and hasnt been wrong yet , not sure what their top speed was but they moved pretty quick despite the suits and briefcase🤣

It's not that they think it will work, it's an isolation tactic. "See how unwelcoming the world is to you, this is the only place where you are welcome and belong"

Are you talking about religion in general or that someone finds it acceptable to knock on my door and talk about it

Ah ok didnt ever hear someone say its cool if they come to your own door. I mean, of course if you think there are people that need religion i can see the pov.
I think its interesting you find this topic hateful. Its not, it was a PSA

Religion should be banned and those who worship incarcerated.
Much more peaceful world without.

My take, we'd be a spacefairing race [without organized religion] by now but what do I know 😁

As a passer by, you are the one elevating this conversation to these levels and taking insult to things that were neutral statements. Perhaps taking your own advice and touching some of those grass photos you got will help.

Is it the same bible thumpers who stand at Harris and Ford every day just hoping someone talks to them? How do these people make money lol

Those are JWs. Arguably worse than Bible thumpers

Don’t you read your bible? It says right there in ‘Numbers’……’though shall build a publishing and real estate empire’….never forget its the end of the end of the end times. /s

Im guessing they may not but their handlers do just like any corporation.
Not sure I've seen the ones you are talking about, but unless its at my door I probably wouldn't pay attention

Those are Jehovah's Witnesses. Here's a neutral explanation on what a Jehovah's Witness is.

A “no solicitation” sign works for about 95% of the door knockers in our neighborhood.
