You don't need to be rude to them, just tell them you're not interested. If you're bored, invite them in and debate religion with them (seriously, my one friend loved when people would just chat belief systems with him).
Seriously though, I've heard some of the stuff they've gone through from rude or inconsiderate people. Then to hear people say that they send their dogs after them. They don't mean ill-will to you, they truly believe they are offering you a gift by sharing their beliefs. If you don't want to hear it, tell them no. Don't be an about it.

I can appreciate what they are doing. Still, they don't seem to realise that people don't like someone knocking on their door trying to shove their beliefs upon them. I put them on the same level of telemarketers.
If people are interested in Mormonisn they can attend the local church in thier area.
