Jehovah Witness

They also knock on people's doors and annoy them. If they come to my door I set the dog on them.

More precisely, a Jehovah's Witness strives to live by the teachings of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses which are based on its interpretation of the teachings of the Bible.

They are only trying to do as what they believe as help.

And are friendly usually, you will notice if you pay attention

Going door to door to tell people about Jesus is in the Bible.

Is trespassing on private property in the Bible?

If you are willing to die for Jesus

I don't care. I'm watching the TV, eating a meal, making a model plane, whatever, when knock knock knock! on the goddamn front door. What is it? A fire? Someone's dead? The police? No, it's a guy in an excessively neat suit with a Bible and some leaflets. I glare. The dog glares. Grrrr!

It's funny you posted this. I read the OP and immediately thought to myself, "And they knock on people's door at seven in the morning every Saturday".

I had a roommate years ago that bought an old Nazi Bible and some other odds and ends and would toss them on the coffee table before inviting them in. For the armed forced recruiters that would come around he had a box of gay stuff (some porn, books, magazines, etc) and would always make sure his answers or conversation had to do with something gay. I have to admit, it's pretty comical to observe how long it takes for somebody to get uncomfortable enough to leave.

They may believe they are presenting as friendly but it is not polite/courteous/nice to infringe on others' time and space.

And not all of them are friendly. Some of them are strikingly condescending.

If you tell them you are already saved they usually go away quite happy as long as you don't say you are Catholic. They have a special mission to save them from their erroneous beliefs. Baptist or Methodist is OK. I was saved at a Billy Graham rally when I was 14, so I know the jargon.

Not only in the Bible, it is also in the Bill of Rights.

It is usually the mormons who are well dressed up in a suit.
Jehovas Witnesses come in simpel cloth to show how humble they are.
I do not like them, just as I do not like the guys trying to sell me carpets, or things made by handicapped or prisoners.
I have a trick - very friendly I tell them that I am a foreigner (with foreign passport) According to law, paragaph so and so I am not allowed to buy at the door. Believe me - they are gone.
The religous usually start with a question about how bad the world is and how much criminality. Don´t you agree? No I certainly do not. 95% of the population is not criminal, live a decent life and work hard in their way.
Can you prove anything else? They leave.

They are heretics.
Anathema sint!

I had one of those jokers come to the door a few years back (we are not often bothered in this neighborhood). While her confederates hovered behind her, she asked me if I didn't feel that there were not enough hours in the day. I said, succinctly: "Nope." A little nonplussed, she asked a couple of more questions of a similar nature--I'm sure this was a technique which she had developed and used many times in the past. Assuring her that I was happy with things as they were, I asked why she had knocked on the door. She then asked if I wanted to talk about Jesus. I said no, took the storm door from her grasp and closed it, and closed and locked the front door. I won't be overtly nasty to them, but I have no obligation in ordinary civility to entertain their delusions.

Its like being on the internet

A mental situation, can drive you crazy yeah?

There is never trouble in paradise for such a perfect place is heaven and there is no wrong in heaven

Earth is the hell of it all

I said usually.

Because i know.

And think of how we infinge on the time of others by communication via internet.

I really think they just want to talk to you more rather intensely with that information

They can live by whatever standards and beliefs they want, I draw the line at door to door proselytizing.

The last one who came by got to nearly suffocate as I smoked one cigarette after another as they stood in my doorway, carefully flicking the ashes at their feet and blew the smoke right at them.

(Okay, so I wasn't that careful and some ashes landed on their footwear)

So, go about and do what your faith dictates, just don't be surprised if there isn't always a warm welcome.
