"K thanks" that was it, weird interaction, didn't think they still knocked on doors anymore. I was in a hurry to get to the gas station for my nic fix or I would have asked them who they were with.

i like the ones who excitedly tell you that the king has been born, as if you could have possibly avoided knowing about jesus while growing up in europe

Jehovas literally use their virgins to recruit

I had such a weird interaction with mormons many years ago. I was in my local town centre and two American mormons were there, trying to recruit people. I didn't have much else to do, so when they tried talking to me, I stopped and listened. They must have taken this as me wanting to join because after just a few minutes of me listening without trying to get away, one of them took out a diary, flicked through the pages and asked, "So, when would you like to be baptised?"

If they told you the address they could look up what type of church it is.

I my experience if two or more persons are talking to you about going to church it is for some sort of evangelical reason.

I have had some smoking hot Jehovah Witnesses approach me.

My nearest neighbor is a quarter of a mile away. Jehovah's witnesses came down the couple of miles of two track just to knock on my door and see my stoned ass in my "don't give a fuck" clothes answer and be like "not interested"..

You see this? When I have my tweety bird shirt on it means I don't care.

Don't think Mormons do women missionaries. If they do it's after my family stopped going at least.

The only mormons I ever had try to recruit me were both women, this was probably over 20 years ago.

they do women missionaries, but it isn't very common.

I generally just ignore door knocks these days
