Experiences With Religious Door Knockers
81 Answers
Since moving to a high rise with limited access, I no longer get the religious door knockers/God Gang trying to sell me Jesus. Pity really as I used to enjoy trying to engage them in conversation and watching them back up the path as I quoted chapter and verse back at them..
(As an ex evangelical, it NEVER leaves you)
Most of the time I actually had a desire to debate/learn/exchange ideas with them but the feeling was not mutual...they just wanted to convert people and had no interest in other points of view.
I was never one for shutting the door in the face of someone who believed that they were doing good. Much rather have a mutual conversation.
However one afternoon we had a family gathering at my mums when the JW's were doing the rounds. I was sent to the door to see them off.
I politely asked them if they could come back the following week as we were in the middle of an occultic rite and were about to sacrifice a cockerel.
They actually apologised for disturbing us (at an OAP's bungalow) and promised to return the following week
(never did return. EVER)
Strange that! They promised as well.
Any stories re God Gang Door Knockers?
