I get stuck there for like 5 minutes trying to be all nice and let them know I am not interested. I am not even sure why I answer the door. I even told them I was really heavy into Jesus (not really) thinking they would be like "right on, isn't he great, well have a terrific day". But they want me to be into their Jesus. I guess my Jesus isn't as good as theirs.
How do you do it?

"have any of you ever invited them in and talked to them? I was over at my freinds house one day and while I was there these two guys elder and elder showed up. my buddy invites them in and we all start talking for a few and have some lemonaide. My freind says that he is really glad they came back and appreiciates them offering to help with stuff around his house and then proceeds to get them started on work in his back yard. So I ask him whats the deal and he tells me that they stopped by a few weeks ago for the first time and he was asking them questions about there mission, they then proceeded to tell him about the service aspects of the deal and offer to help him with things around the house. he said that they had been coming by once a week and all he had to do was listen to them a bit and give them lemonaide and they would work. this went on for a few months and his backyard turned out great. :D :D "

The best stories come from the missionaries themselves. My entire family are "Crazy Mormons." These missionaries have heard it all-every day something new, too. Four of my six kids served missions and, as a father, I couldn't have given them better training for the "Real World" than their missions gave them, well, maybe the military could've given them something similar. Two of them are regular posters here. If you didn't know we were Mormons, you'd think we were almost normal to boot! We have five v-drive boats, four drag race cars, build/drive everything ourselves, run our own family business and still never miss Church, go figure?
I see the JWs at my door often and, as a result of our missionary experiences feel the need to remain civil but I do tell them I'm pleased with my current place in life. I suspect most Mormon missionaries would understand that too? O course, there are extremists in every group but they get sent packing from 99 out of 100 doors, I'd bet they all prefer kind treatment while saying no but maybe that's not your style. I respect that too?
Oh, by the way, they knocked on our door and my wife and I joined as a result? Absolutely one of the best decisions I ever made. This missionary stuff works sometimes, I guess?

The best way to keep Mormon missionaries from knocking on your door.... The next time they knocking, invite them in and listen to their message. Then let them baptize you. That'll teach those dirty rotten missionaries. And they'll stop bothering you.

My parents and little sister are mormon and not bad people. I just tell them that I don't like them preaching to me and they normally don't. The do however help out a lot when needed as do the missionaries. My sister was on her mission in Pensylvania during 911 about 2 miles from where one of the planes crashed and she helped a lot of people cope with things. All in all they can be a little annoying when you are working in the garage and they sneak up on you:mad: :mad:

We live in the heart of Mormonville. I had one follow me to the sons car. I politely told them I was not interested. The one kept on. He finally asked why I wouldn't listen to him. I told him finally that I thought his religion was crap thinking that would stop him. It didn't. He held onto the door of my son's El Camino to try to convince me to listen. I finally told him that he was about to loose his F'in hand if he didn't let go 'cause the door was closing. Then they stood behind the car. The son had to start backing up to get them to leave us alone. One tried the foot in the door and the wife shut it on him. It was 9:30 at night and she was heading to bed and they wouldn't let her leave.

Living up in Utah we see Missionaries as much as the next. There is no need to be rude, unless needed. All of my Aunts, Uncles and cousins are mormons and 80% have gone on missions. Most of the missionaries are pretty cool. When I was still in High School, me and my father made really good friends with a missionary from Alaska. We just simply told them that they we more than welcome to come by and visit but not about religion. They came by almost every week just to shoot the shit.

But if they ever do happen to make it across the rabid midget filled moat, past the absinthe throwing gargoyles and a safe passage through the fire swamp I would like to have them come in and help me shave my chode. I can never seem to reach that area.

They were kind enough to leave me a pamplet, which if I'm not mistaken shows a hot blonde girl in long black boots with no pants on riding a horse. You guys judge for yourselves. Sorry for the blurry pic, but it's a pic of a pic. In any event, it's pretty clear she has a nice rack.:D

Maybe one of you would be kind enough to inquire about her for me if they come to you door with this brochure. You know something like: "Damn! Is that chick on the horse half naked?":D

I usually just say: "...if we start talking about metaphysics and epistemology, well...then You'd tell me about your beliefs; I'd tell you about mine and pretty soon you'd want to go my way, and I'd hate to do that to you and your family, so how about if we just leave it at that?"
BTW: I'm married to a mormon. She is not practicing and never did a mission, but her family still practice. They don't bother me about it at all, as we have had the conversation above.

Wow, that's a very Christian way to respond. I'm sure you were joking, though.
JW's are no more Christian than Muslims...for them to turn up at my door on Christmas morning, they deserve what they get...:D

I have one acronym for you
WWJD?
I'm not going to get into a debate on how your religion is more Christian than others. Everyone thinks theirs is correct. JWs and Mormons believe Christ was the son of God. That lumps them into the Christian category for me. There are hundreds of religions that call themselves "Christians." Just because they don't celebrate Christ in the same manner as you does not make them any less Christian.

Better go back and read exactly what JW's believe. You might be shocked....:eek: In any case, I have no need to debate this either...needless to say, the idea of them showing up at someone's house at 8:30 on Christmas morning doesn't anger you the least bit?? they know what they are doing, and they do it on purpose....that agers me...such a selfish act and imposition...as for Mormans, you need to keep reading...don't get me wrong, I have LOTS of Morman friends...but there are serious unanswered questions...but I love them, they are great people...:D JW's I can't stand...I see them as a cult....lost people....

Answer the door in a towel or naked..................they won't come back!!:D
If I did, you're right...
If my wife did they wouldn't leave...

I agree that showing up on Christmas is over the top. I've seen it happen at my aunts house. I know both religions have kinda strange (being PC here) beliefs by Christian standards, however, the bottom line is what I stated above. They believe in the immaculate conception and that Christ is the son of God. You may believe that going to your special planet when you die is goofy, but personally, I think a virgin getting pregnant is a bit goofy, but that's just me. Glad you enjoy your faith. :)

Unless I know the person on the other side of the peephole, I never open the door. They knock/ring the bell, I say "can I help you". Most solicitors will turn around and leave right then.
Haven't had any of the LDS peeps come by, but I bet it would be short and sweet with them too.

Say no thank you and close the door, You won't see them again.

Although I have met some over the top Mormons, most I have met are very decent people. I have had some issues, but usually a "no thank you" will suffice. I don't think they teach them to go over the top and not leave when asked. That's a problem with the individual, not the religion.

I live right in the middle of Mormon town and never had any of them stop by and want to talk to me.:D. I think its because the neighbors keep telling them I need saving.:devil:
Actually Most of my neighbors are Morman and we all get along great till Sunday. They all keep to themselves but heck they watch the house for me while I'm out boating or riding. Seem to be good folk.

I get stuck there for like 5 minutes trying to be all nice and let them know I am not interested. I am not even sure why I answer the door. I even told them I was really heavy into Jesus (not really) thinking they would be like "right on, isn't he great, well have a terrific day". But they want me to be into their Jesus. I guess my Jesus isn't as good as theirs.
How do you do it?
1. Ok obvios one is answer the door NEKID,
2. just like telemarketers on the phone just tell them to hang on just a min and youll be back,after about 10 min they will get the hint and pound sand!!
when telemarketers call I just tell them to hang on just a min, set the phone down and go about my day!!:D

LOL, I've done that.
That is, answer the door nekid not number 2.
just kidding. I've let them hang on the line. Actually, I don't tell them to hold on though. I just set the phone down. They finish their schpiel, then I can hear "Mrs. Knoll? . . . . are you there? . . . hellloooo? Mrs. Knoll? . . ." meanwhile, we are laughing our butts off at the kitchen table, because, of course, they always call at dinner time.

The Mormon book left out one important thing.
When the Bible stated that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life....
The Mormon book left out the Truth. Go figure.

Is that concerning the JW or Morons (I mean Mormons)? Just curious.
