I wonder if you reply the same way to the girl scout members that come to your door and try to tell you cookies. Maybe the Red Cross when they do door-to-door campaigns during desperate times, or any other volunteer organization that is trying to raise money.
Learn some respect and just say you're not interested. Unless of course you LIKE ruining someones day by being a prick.

What, with "no thanks not interested?" Actually that is usually how I reply to the Girl Guides. The cookies aren't as good as they were when I was younger.
As for being a prick... You should note that I already said I generally tell them I'm not interested. But you feel free to ignore that. I've never been rude to them. Even some JW's that once felt it was appropriate to wake me up while I was taking a nap at MRC between classes to talk to me about their ridiculous religion. I actually had a really good philosophical discussion with them after getting over the sleepiness.
I always just thought that our neighbours' down the street experience represented a good way for both the mormons to satisfy their missionary zeal, while keeping them from knocking on the doors of those of us who would prefer to be left alone. If that makes me a prick.... oh well, most people who know me would disagree. And since you don't know me, I won't be too hurt by your bizarre jumping to that conclusion...
