How to get rid of a Jehovas Witness
Lately I have been on their hit list for door knocking. Anyway, the door bell wrings last night and before I could get a word in this JW starts in with his speil. I quickly halt the guy before he could go any further and proceed to say....
Dion: "Before you go any further there is something that needs to be said. There is no way that I could ever become a "witness."
JW: "Fair enough then. May I ask what your objections are to becoming a witness?"
Dion: "Sure! I didn't see the accident!"
I grin, shut the door and the man walks aways shaking his head

One of my friends is a former JW and he said that he decided to give up practicing it altogether after he went to house in California once, and a man who looked like Jesus opened the door. He was naked, was holding a martini, and asked if he wanted to join in on a terrific four-way gangbang. He said the house smelled like toe cheese.

I have no problems with witnesses or mormons coming to my door. They are respectful, dress appropriately and they don't get offended when i tell them im not interested. Their religion tells them to go be missionaries and so they do. What's not to like. Easier to respect someone who takes an active interest in the things they say they believe than the 1 hour christian i meet in the other parts of my life.

I've been getting carpet bombed by J-dubs for the past year. They sent me invites to various events in English and then the same document in Chinese the following week (note: you'll never see anyone whiter than me). Someone also sometimes gives me looooong hand written notes. Showing up with their little kids front and centre every single time. Nothing has worked to get them to stop in the past, but maybe I can force them into submission with lameness ala Dion.

Door knocking and shoving your beliefs down the throats of home owners turns many off, including myself. We all know where your churches are and if we have any interest we'll be sure to show up some Sunday.

If they're happy with their beliefs then I'm happy for them... the minute they start trying to project those beliefs on others, I stop being happy for them. I'm happy with my beliefs and I don't feel the need to go door to door to tell everyone about them.
They're the equivalent of a door to door salesman and deserve to be treated the same.
They used to knock on my door ever Saturday around 1130. I began to answer my door naked. A few times my family was at the door, which was slightly awkward. After a few weeks they stopped knocking.

Your family or the JWs?

when we moved into our neighbourhood (8 or so years ago) we had some jw's come around and i was working outside on my truck so i couldn't just ignore the doorbell. they started the conversation and right away i said something like, "i've been an active member with 'x' church for the last 25 years. would you like to come to one of our services this weekend?"
that was the one and only time the jw's have come to my house. even this spring i was outside doing yard work and they see me, just smile and nod, and continue on their way
i think when they go into a neighbourhood they must have a list of 'yes/no/maybe' houses... i'm guessing i'm on the 'no' list!!

A home inspector told me he recently viewed a home with an underground dungeon. The buyer was not dissuaded at all!
I let a couple in before back when I was in high school. I was cutting class and one of the JWs was hot in kind of a naughty librarian way so I thought what the hay.... Of course nothing happened though.
They kept showing up after that and leaving literature.
