24. Other methods
An atheist friend of mine in college made the mistake of telling one of the Gideons who were handing out small bibles on campus one day that he was an atheist. The old man in the powder blue suit followed him across campus trying to save him. I think my friend eventually broke into a sprint to get away from him.

A friend of mine opened the door to a family of JW's (mom, dad, young daughter). After some small talk with their standing on the porch the conversation went along the lines of:

My friend: Oh, is this your daughter?
JW's: Yes.
My friend: Oh, she's so cute. (Bending down to talk to her). Little girl, did you know your mommy and daddy are in a cult? When you get older, I'll give you sanctuary if you can find your way back here.

The JW's quickly ran off the porch, got in the street, made some sort of "religious" sign towards the house, and went back and told the rest of the JW's at the local Kingdom Hall never to go to her house - at least that's what I'm guessing since she hasn't been bothered again.
