How do you handle unwanted evangelists who knock at your door?

You found me out!

I seem to do that

I can't for the life of me figure out who gifted me my GFm though - they've been leaving messages on my blog, and I haven't a clue

Ok...you got gifted? How cool...no ideas for you...have no idea how that works...

You have a point. The Witnesses go out preaching VERY early

I think that's one of the reasons we gave up, we could never get there on time

I think there's a GFM offer going on where you can, I guess, "Buy one get one free". That must've been it, because there haven't been many GFM-winning competitions around lately

Yeah, that sure would come in handy: Oh, I don't like this guy. "By the way, I'm a JW".

One of my friends didn't really have an opinion on them, but her grandma always complained about being bothered, so that's where she got the viewpoint from.

Exactly....your mom must know the frustrations of the views people have...I was told once that because I'm "one of them" I couldn't take Ibuprofen!

She really enjoys a good discussion though, that's one good thing, she doesn't lose that passion she has.

She can start a conversation with anyone really, we've met a lot of people that way.

You can tell them all sorts of stuff that way.

Obviously the people that stopped by to talk to you were wavering and not strong in their faith.All witnessing time is VOLUNTARY...not forced. Sorry you had a negative experience...because if they truly did that...they were not acting in faith.

No need to apologize. If that was a negative experience, I'd sooner not have a positive one. I may not be interested in their lifestyle anymore than their interested in mine but we expressed tolerance for one another. And I think thats a great thing. Us sinners gotta stick together!

Hopefully they have changed...

I know...I can talk to anyone anywhere...and it's getting easier because the world events are scaring people...comes up all the time now.

I love to talk about current affairs and world events! One of my favourite things to do
