I'm all for freedom to believe in whatever the fuck you want to believe in, but try and force your religion down my neck and you're guaranteed to piss me off. Just had some more Jahovas witnesses at the door with leaflets about the role of men and women through the eyes of god. They asked if i wanted to read it, and i was like "no not really, maybe you;d be better giving it to someone who would" then they said maybe my girlfriend would like to read it, so I told them that I was gay. Then they said it was just about the inequality of women, especially in other countries where they like have to walk 2 paces behind the men, and i said that i thought that was a good idea anyway, then closed the door on them. You shoulda seen their faces  Mwahahahahaha

Didn't you say the world would end in 1978? Funny, im sure im still here...
Close door.
The missis has a JW at work, she is bullied by her husband, who thinks he's gods gift (literally ) and looks down on any women. Its a nasty nasty religion.

They told my dad that they would repent his sins so he gave them like 10 minutes of guilt and how terrible the sins were so they were well and truly expecting something really juicy, then he showed them his collection of stolen Ikea pencils

I had one bang on my door for ages whilst I was in bed during the summer holidays when I was a kid. I finally got up as it was banging for that long I thought it was something serious. When I opened the door there was a guy in glasses and a kid, also in glasses. The pair of them looked identical and to be jonest inbred. The guys firsts words "Oh sorry did we wake you?"
Couldn't get rid of the bastards.

To be fair they aint doing anything wrong. If you aint interested simply say..sorry i am not interested. Rather than been a wanker about it

Problem is, you say that and then they stick their foot in your door and start preaching.

It cant be that good a religion if they have to go round knocking on doors to recruit people, if i want to be a JW ill doo it myself, just because you knock on the door that doesnt mean im going to rejoice god and become a little wife
No one will come/call me anymore, the last telesales call i had i said
Someone would have to be stupid to give their personal details out over the phone to someone calling from some company
caller agrees, then asks for my DOB and starts yapping on about mortgages
I shout, are you calling me stupid
conversation like that for about 10 minutes, caller gives up and i have a giggle

Yeah, and the royal mail one as well
I get the odd occasional one now and again but not half as much as before 
They ring me at work now as well, but i tell them im far too busy and important to listen to what they have to say

They are doing something wrong in my eyes, they are taking up my time and bothering me in my free time  and as someone else pointed out, if you just tell them you arent interested that doesn't help one bit. Religion is a very personal matter, you aren't going to convert someone by going door to do, its a ridiculous waste of time and all it does is anger people.

You people are stupid.
But yes, my aunti & uncle and cousins are JW, my dad used to be one until he grew up and started questioning the faith with questions that his mum & dad couldn't answer.
It is IMO a very bad religion, I went to a JW wedding about 3 years ago and I've never heard so much bollocks during the ceremony.
The wedding has nothing to do with the couples love for each other its all about how Jehova God brought the pair together.
Don't be rude to these people though, they can't help it that they have been brain washed.
