I tried polite and it didn't work so I tried a harsher tactic and it worked. Just like another poster said, it is almost like if you are polite in telling them to go away they see it as a weakness to keep on knocking week after week.
How is me getting up and answering the door helping people?

I was infering that if you thought Mormons were useless, then you
might also feel that the homeless are useless too.
Here's a question to all: If "spreading the word" is an important facet of religious beliefs of JW's and Mormons, then aren't we disrespecting or belittling their beliefs by acting rude to them when they ring our doorbells?
According to Hoot, it's OK to be rude because they are annoying, and missdpuck feels it's justified in order to save time. Any other opinions?
I guess that, since I do go to church on Sunday, I would be a hypocrite to be rude to JW's and Mormons since Jesus did say to love your neighbour and to forgive others, etc. No common sense in my stupid religion. Why should I treat people with respect? After all, there IS no proof that God exists...
