The Jehovah's Witnesses Are Getting Lazy

[Shemtov]

So If a jehovah's witness keeps knocking on your door, can you call the police? Because it might be protected by the 1st admendment? It is after all, their religion.

In most cases, calling the police doesn't do anything, since it is a huge part of our religion and we're not soliciting. If thery come, they would probably just ask us/ them to leave for now. the easiest thing to do is just say that you don't want to be called on, and we'll put you on the list. You would still be called on every few months or so, though, just so we know that you haven't moved or had a change in heart or whatever.

Did they freak out?

No So I give them street cred. They quit coming by though.

 

[SpeterMan3]

Lol. We're so understanding of everybody...

 

[Majic Walrus]

Phone witnessing is actually mostly for those who can't get out because of health problems and those who want to assist them. You should maybe take them even more seriously, because they're trying to do as much as they can, however they can.

I like when they come to my door.
I ask for just as much time for me to speak as I let them speak.

then i show them inaccuracies in their own books and their version of the bible they can't refute.
this one lady almost cursed me out.

I was like "look lady don't get mad at me, its right there in black and white"

Don't GIVE me a pamphlet if I can't GIVE you one back.

Yep, saw a couple the other day on the subway. One came up to me and asked how I was. I just replied: "not interested".

You have to make them not want to talk to you in not a really offensive but odd way, for example

Female JW: How are you today?
Me: Sexually unsatisfied... Would you like to help me with that? t:

Works even better if it's a guy.

Another example (you need to be a bit better prepared for this but it works)

JW: Have you heard about the word?
Me: (Stereo turns on with remote, music is full blast, playing the bird is the word) Don't you know about the bird? EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT THE BIRD IS THE WORD!!!!

You should write for Family Guy!

The waitresses at my favorite restaurant can't sing customers happy birthday because the owners are Jehovah's Witnesses. Which does bother me personally, but I know it bums a lot of people out there.

Okay, never heard of that. What's wrong with that?

The witnesses don't observe any holidays, apparently.

 

[StrainedEyes]

I've never encountered one. Though I feel like I wouldn't be very happy if I did.

Not even their birthdays? Well, aren't they just bundles of fun.

My cousin is a or at least was a Jehovah's witness an I bought him something for his birthday last year not knowing about the no gift policy crap they have. He politely turned it down an I was baffled by it

Tell them you're Jewish. JWs will never witness to a Jew. I know a former JW who is now a Baptist pastor who taught me a couple of easy removal tricks.

I usually either tell a JW that I'm Jewish or answer the door, "Can this wait, we're right in the middle of Black Mass and orgies don't last forever. Wanna come in?"

Like Christians but marginally crazier. Crazier than Mormons even.

 

[Wiseman]

I have worked with 2 Jehovah's Witnesses at 2 seperate jobs and both of those people just happened to be the people I hated the most at those jobs........I don't have any problem with any religion, and it's not like they were spouting off their religion to me so I'm sure it was just a coincedence that they were both from that religion but man I hated them

Take the discussion to the Religion thread.
