    They were just here. I'm a few blocks away from a Kingdom Hall, so I get them from time to time. I've told them in the past I'm not interested, but they come back anyway.

    Do you answer the door? Do you talk to them? Are you into their message?

    I don't answer the door. I figure it is less of a waste of everyone's time if I just let them move on to the next house.

    we get the non-english speaking witnesses. I usually open the door, say no thank you, and go back inside. there has been a couple who tried to get forceful and I was forced to be mean.
    There are these two boys in white shirts, black pants and on bikes. theyre both white and speak pretty good spanish. One of em is super fine and I wanna rape him.

    I would tell them "Hey want to come in and here a song about God?"
    and then play Woody Woodpecker by Dan Deacon.

    My husband, sister in law and brother in law are all ex witnesses, their mother is a very much active witness who is always trying to bring them back to the cult so I've had a lot of dealing with the whole clan. ;)

    I usually don't answer the door if I'm here and witnesses stop, but my husband gets off by it, loves toying with them. They usually don't know how to deal with him, being that he's actually an ex witness and knows how it all works, he will challenge anything they have to say, point out the hypocrisy of many of their teachings. So usually they're fleaing our porch pretty fast. :D

    I answer the door , and go out of my way to be nice to them , I even tell them to be careful as they leave.
    A little kindness never hurts anyone.

    I'm rude to them--- I feel preaching is a form of violence.

    I don't think they can really help their own ignorance... It IS a cult...

    I'm generally polite but not interested when they knock - sometimes I do take their magazines, solely because they're so ridiculous, that I like to read them.

    My best friend was raised in a Jehovah's Witness family... His mom just found out that he is gay and told him either to "stop being gay, or leave." So, he's moving across the country to his dad's (he's only 17).

    So... What verrrry little respect I gave them before, that's all gone.

    They left a leaflet in the mailbox.

    The title is "Would you like to know THE TRUTH?"
    It says there is only one book with all the answers and that book is the bible...

    There is also a picture of a man in a business suit sitting on the floor with a man who looks to be a Muslim (he is barefoot and wearing ethnic clothing), and they are smiling at each other holding bibles, because the second man has obviously been converted...

    I think I am going to be sick.

    They don't come to our house anymore.
    But that Hare Krishna guy comes every once in a while and my mom always flirts with him. Its embarrassing.
