    Wow! That is super cool. You must feel really good about yourself. I hope I get the chance to do that today. Keep up the good fight!

    Actually most of them spread hate...my mother in law is big time bible thumper who's church she belongs to is vehemently opposed to same sex marriage. I asked her who they were "hurting", I told her it was their "business", her response "the bible says its wrong", my response was "think for yourself". Sorry that ain't love that's hate...and most religions believe that starting with one of the largest...the Catholic Church.

    Ugh, did you take a course in creative whining or something?

    When those Jesus losers come to my door I tell them to go f*ck themselves, slam the door and then yell "Release the Hounds" so they can hear me through the door.

    You don't see me banging on people's doors and invading their private spaces, trying to shove my delusions down their throats. You also don't see me spending tens of millions of dollars to take away their rights.

    Being "kind" and "gentle" to Mormons banging on your door makes them feel like they're welcome... like they can come back. And they're not. And they can't. I want Mormons to be afraid to leave their own houses.

    but how about you post your address here and we'll make sure they come visit you every day? OK?

    ok./

    I was thinking ... Hate maybe :?
  • Just tell them it's not for you. I told a guy it was a fairytale and then I said thanks for stopping by. No need to be an asshole about it.

    Theres a way of dealing with these type of folks and it certainly isnt to make them a cup of tea.

    Im sorry, Im not a rude kind of person, but these unwelcome visitors spouting nonsense get right on my nerves too.

    Still - no need to be rude to them. Just ask them to leave.

    I sometimes think Id just like to sit down with them, forget about the Jesus talk and hear all the stories.

    Naked people @ the door, goofy things they say.... etc just for a good chuckle.

    Being nice to these people doesn't work...it's just an invite to come back...I don't want them back...

    I do wonder why religion is way bigger now in the states than it is here in the UK. Its fast disappearing over here considering footfalls into churches from the 1970's to now.....yet over there you have churches packed with folk banging on about an illusionist from 2000 years ago.....crazy.

    I understand

    your post sounded a bit more celebratory than just to ask someone to leave.. I'm not interested

    in fact it brought out some very real hate and harshness in another

    at the risk of sounding whiney
    I'll add that the bigger person is thoughtful of others feelings even when they
    don't agree with them

    no need to be rude ... lots of space between encouragement and nastiness

    I'm in Canada myself...but we have plenty of church's here as well...I have read that the amount of people going to church has dropped significantly.

    Should have shared with them some verses of the Origin Of Species, that's what I tried to do last time.

    there are many churches embracing each other's beliefs, finding common ground
    instead of uncommon
    applying todays needs to yesterdays answers while looking to future healing

    church is good for so many people ...
    I'm on the outside looking in and don't understand why others like me don't feel this
  • unsungunsung I stopped by on March 7 2024. First time in many years, had to update payment info. Hope all is well. Politicians suck. Bye. Posts: 9,487
    They make these little signs that say "No Solicitating".

    You badasses that get off swearing at people for their beliefs should try that.
  • darn now you've wrecked my dreams of visiting this 1000 olde Norman church in northern england... too bad the walls are plastered would love to see whats behind them.

    I would think that would be welcome if you approached in friendship

    in fact I have known other young people to do the same

    love bridges all beliefs
