I have a friend that is a Jehovah and she told me that the *door step Jehovah* are only their to sell the magazine, not to push their religion onto anyone. She felt that JW's have a bad name because they do this *doorstep hard sell*. Shame as many JW's are lovely people.
A little update!
My gramps said I would be a coward if I just leave the book on the doorstep with a note :lol2:. So im gunna be all big and brave open the the door and say (which I should of just said in the first place) i'm very sorry i'm not interested in joining your bible study group and hand them back the bible study book :smug: all I need to do now is find the bluddy thing :giggle:
A friend of mine invted them in and after they had sat down said "it was lucky you didn't get here any earlier I have only just got in from the blood donor clinic" they got stuck with him for nearly an hour I think, until his wife returned and told him to let them go. They haven't knocked his door since
One day when I had two hours, with little to do I invited them in. They came in by two, they always travel in couples.
So we sat down, I managed not to offer coffee. :twisted:
They came up with all their bits from the bible. I said in contradicts it's self. They said the contradictions proved the bible was right. After all, how many times do to two people remember the same thing.
They said that I should worship god.
I remember the day I stopped believing in a kind, benevolent god, and told them if their gods exists he is the last thing that I will praise and worship.
They left, and invited me to a local meeting hall.
Well there I was watching High School Musical for the second time this morning when there was a little rat a tat tat on the door, they were back after I had missed them last week!!.
I returned their book and explained that I was uninterested in their religion and that I was was happy ambeling through life without it.
They asked why and I told them that parts of the book they left me were in my opinion bollox (I didn't use the word bollox but can't think of a different word right now) especially the part where they will except no blood products!.
They think its a shame that I don't want any bible study lessons as they feel I have alot of unanswered questions... (I have an inquisitive mind). But I did it I said no thanks im not interested!. Oh and I also told them my mum would disown me if I joined their religion a little white lie never hurt anyone did it...!!!.
I'd be no good joining the Jehovah's Witnesses, I didn't even see the accident.
So I take it I'm on my own in enjoying shocking them when they come to my door and having them walking away wondering if cold calling is really the best way to go about this?
fun with the witnesses...........
prove to them we have to exist mathematically...not sure quite how this works but it's something to do with probabilities and dividing infinity by a finite no.(it's a long time since i was at school and the one time i remembered it properly and used it the poor buggers were stumped)
