2. There is also the black mass door answer option
Show up at the door wearing a black robe and tell them you are in a hurry because the sacrifice is squirming too much.

5. The last time
they came to my house I threw them off with anti Bush rhetoric. They scooted away in shock that some one actually hates the asshole.

38. Interestingly enough
I went into a anti-Bush rant and the Jesus Freaks actually agreed with me. Turns out they were Jehovas Witnesses - and unfortunately they are not allowed to vote.

6. Don't be so mean.
Invite them in for a bloody mary but only on that condition. Of course, you may have to clean up the burnt crosses tomorrow.

7. I would spread a bunch of gay literature on the coffee table and
invite them in for some coffee.

Not really... I'd just say "I'm not buying what you're selling. Seeya!"

27. The had the nerve to wring twice! I held firm. I'm glad the dogs are

I really have an excuse cuz I'm on conference calls working in the nude.
:hide:

Oh I guess I'm posting in the nude too! :hide:

12. We get Mormons in 2 person bicycle teams sometimes
I don't hide from them or the rainbow coalition of cultists either.
I usually quote Holy Scripture to support my own spiritual beliefs, but the First Amendment doesn't prevent some organized religious folks from wanting to do me harm, lol.

not one with a bunch of fanatics who are bringing about the end of the world.

21. we just get Jehovah's Witnesses
I usually tell them that I am a secular humanist ( I'm not, but) and that confuses them. Then I politely send them on their way.

Never had the other type of fundy at my door.

23. Every couple of weeks the Southern Baptists
Edited on Fri Apr-29-05 09:19 AM by RebelOne
go on a recruiting campaign in my neighborhood. I just flat out tell them I am an atheist. That usually does the trick. Sometimes if I'm lucky, they will pass up my house when they see my Rottweiler at the window.

30. I usually hide. One day I hid behind the door
while they talked to my two year old. "Is your mommy home? Go get your mommy?"

After that I realized I was setting a bad example to my kids by hiding, so now I answer the door and tell them politely that I already have my own spiritual beliefs. For some reason this works.

31. Do What my friends did in Salt lake City
when the missionaries came around they had one of their kids walk through the living room with a cigarette and one with a can of beer.

Or you could just go to the door naked. That works pretty well.

34. tell 'em
that you don't discuss the Bible with anyone who's not completely fluent in Hebrew and Aramaic because all the translations are totally lame and inaccurate.

That always shuts them up.
