How many visits do u get?

How patient are you with them?

Have you signed up or even thought about it?

Should we put a sticker like "We give Blood" on our door?

Personally i can not see where they are coming from.

 

[jevs]

Each to their own. i work with JW and he's the nicest bloke you'll ever meet.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

I'm pretty sure they have a tick list. If you politely tell them you're not interested in speaking to them about religion and not to knock on the door again they will oblige in future.

They come once a month but never open the door but they always leave a leaflet but saying that I never open it to anyone I don’t know. Don’t know what they’re really about.

i answer the door, greet warmly but explain i am a born again christian, of 23 years and that ends the subject.

Nope, they deserved to get told to do one. If I want to learn about god I'll go to church. Don't appreciate being preached at on my door stop.

Agreed, they do my head in.

I had them knock my door during the 2003 RWC semi final:
They said "Have you ever thought...."
By this time I'd seem the little leaflet and told them "Don't you know the rugby's on, f*** OFF" and shut the door.
'er indoors was surprised how rude I was..

I went boating on the Norfolk Broads one year, and the JWs even go along the riverside in Norwich city centre, knocking on the boats to speak to people. I must admit I did accept their copies of The Watchtower on that occasion.

We were having a barbecue later that evening and the paper made great kindling. I am going straight to hell aren't I?

"hi, please join our religion in which we belive there is a limited amount o places in heaven"

"does that mean I could take you spot if I sign up?"

"well, in theory yes, but....."

"I'm in"

 

[dougdeep]

The ones that call here are nice enough, we usually end up talking about sport.

So, is that the Blue membership or the White membership?

I have been polite to them but straight and said i won't be preached to but yet they still regularly visit us.

Perhaps they find us a challenge.

They even bought a toddler with them could have only been 4 i suppose thats so they don't get the aggressive response.

There are lots of nice people in this world but it doesn't mean i will join there cult i even have Palarse and Pompey people i like but we all know the majority our scum and we will NEVER join them..

Well, there's no point in them preaching to the converted, so they'll come back to you!

Kids are a standard tactic.

 

[Don Quixote]

I don't see anything wrong with them, they are nice. I just tell them I am a Catholic they hate me now and won't come back!

 

[Icy Gull]

My wife, my daughter and my father all had blood transfusions that were instrumental in saving their lives why would I want to join a looney sect that would try and stop me agreeing to blood transfusions. I am initially polite with them but if they don't take the hint quickly I turn quite rude. No time for looney religious sects of any sort, andnot much time for the mainstream ones either

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

I always tell them I cant talk now i'm off to the blood doning session, they soon fvck off down the path

 

[bhaexpress]

I admit I am not religious but as far as I'm concerned if JWs want to refuse blood transfusions for whatever reason it's no skin off my nose. Grant you I think that they are just about as stupid as you can get but I'm sure they don't think much of my atheism either. Okay yes it's a bit annoying when they knock on your door but to be fair in their (misguided as far as most people are concerned) way they are trying to help you. They do not debate their beliefs and leave you alone if you politely say you're not interested. That's not like some such as 'The Church of the Latter Day Saints' (Mormons to some MORONS to me) who will accost you in the street then follow you if you try to ignore them. Frankly they piss me off a lot more.

I don't hold with the beliefs of any religion or sect but as far as I'm concerned as long as they mind their own business and are legal they can do as they like.

All Along the Watchtower

Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise ye princes, and prepare the shield./For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth./And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed./...And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground,

PS: Ask them what they think of Jimi Hendrix ? Has he gone to heaven ?

PS again: You can't accuse them of being Vampires!
