Come on, I don't like them coming to my door and bothering me, but I don't think they go door to door to "take advantage of vulnerable people" unless I'm missing something. Their ideas may be loony, but I've never got the impression that they are trying to take advantage of people. What do they really have to gain anyways?

As for how to deal with them, just politely say no thanks. If they are pushy it would be a different story, but when it comes to tele-marketers, mormons, whatever, 99% of them will leave you alone if you just politely say "no thanks". I don't enjoy ruining someone's day because they wasted 1 minute of mine.
