Sometimes you need to sprinkle a bit of ‘a$$hole’ on your character to get a point across. A simple ‘Sorry, I’m not interested’ and walking away should do it. And if they persist, say you’re going to get a **** restraining order if they don’t leave you alone.

lol, the thing is, I am interested in learning about their religion and things like that, just not becoming one of them. That’s the problem. I’ve tried saying this and it doesn’t seem to get through at all.

Take a course or something..thats what i’m doing?

Wikipedia has the low down on all of their religions. If you say you’re interested in learning what they have to say, they’re going to assume that means you want to be one of them. And they’re going to keep coming to your house and sending people to your house until you’re sorely tempted to commit genocide.

Tell them you’re not interested and look up their wacky beliefs on wikipedia.

Church, Sunday 10am, sounds great, I’ll be there to pick you up—

Ask Jesus to do it ;D

Dear Jesus,

I’m not a believer, but please turn my car into a boat. Alternately giving me superhuman abilities to walk across the ocean is also an acceptable alternative.

Your friend,

Jehova’s Witnesses and Mormons don’t take polite hints because they are like sales people. They are trained not to hear a no until it is loud and clear. Something soft like “sorry, I’m busy next sunday” is a soft no. It means no, but not really. I just have reservations. A hard no is “No I’m not interested. Thank you.”

I would advise you to go to church just to learn what they are about but I am afraid they might start using more coercive techniques once you are there. Read about religions at chapters instead, then when you find a religion your interested in, knock on their door.

In the US the Mormons only come to your house if you get a copy of The Book of Mormon.

Incorrect. Mormon missionaries go door to door and they don’t carry anything that tells them whether one house or another has a book of Mormon.
