People come to your door and try to sell you stuff or try to get you to join a group theyre in? Because I do!

Heres what influenced this story.. I was awaken at 9 this morning (thats early for me) by someone ringing my doorbell. I didnt want to get up... I layed in bed for another minute and heard the doorbell ring 2 times in a row. I thought it might have been a contractor since we're re-doing the bathroom. My room is right next to the front door. I'm in my boxers, so I crack my bedroom window open a little and say I'll be over in a minute as I throw a shirt on and some shorts. I go over to the door, opem it, and see some guy and girl holding packets. I kinda give them a blank stare, knowing they were from some church group and wanted to convert me over to whatever the hell they believe in. They started out by saying "Jesus loves us all, and told me to come here to tell you".. Thats when I closed the door on them.. I go back into my room to try to go back to sleep. 5 seconds after I get into my room I hear my doorbell ring again. I lay back in bed.. Doorbell rings again... Now I'm pretty annoyed. I go back to the door, open it, and tell the 2 people that I dont care what they have to say, and to leave me the hell alone and get the hell off my property. The guy just wouldnt give up. As I'm closing the door the second time, the guy trys to stop me and tell me that "God sent him here to desolve all my sins". Now WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN! I told him to get the fuck off my property before I get pissed and make them. I slam the door and watch them say a prayer in my driveway. I was soo pissed I couldnt fall back asleep. It started my day out really shitty, and I wasnt in a good mood when I had to go to work from noon-8.

Fucking people.... IDC what you believe in, just dont try to push it on me! Theyre worse than telemarketers.

Im with you, personally (and Im not trying to get in a religious battle) I dont believe in god. THat would have driven me nuts...

peoples beliefs are peoples beliefs, just dont shove it down my throat... especially when you are within arms reach of me....

I'm a christian, and don't believe in forcing it down others throats.

I hate it when I already tell them I'm a christian and they try and convert me to their church. I just ask why they think theirs is better, when it's from the same bible anyway.. no response..

yea.... just what i thought.. I HATE it myself.. I NEVER push my religion on anyone.. hell some of my friends likely don't even know im religious in a way ;)

I hate it when they use their kids to push it on you. I live out in the country and one day there is a knock at the door im like wtf?

Look out the window and there if a older lady with a little girl so I assumed it was one of my little sisters freinds ( Shes 9 or rather 7 when this happened)

So I open the door and say hello as I am calling my little sisters name, And the older lady just looks at me and says my granddaughter has something to tell you. I imediatly look at all the windows on the cars in the driveway n what not since there are a few nieghbors close I thought something was broken.

Nope , She had her daughter trained on a 10 minute speel about inviting me to their church. Now I am a Catholic but seriously, you need to have a kid do your work for you? I couldnt tell them to gtfo with the little girl there.

( Facepalm)

Yes, dont come to my door and try to sell me a religion. Not happening.

I just usually ignore it when I have that feeling.... But I have been caught like the few times above, where I thought it was something important and it wasnt.

We used to have this happen alot, not so much anymore. It would be pretty well off the beaten path for them to come harass us.

I know it looks tacky, but a simple "No Soliciting" sign goes a long ways...

I can't stand people like that, to me they are just like the fanatics in the middle east except without the guns and bombs.
I was at a buddies house one day when some Jehovah's Witnesses came to the door. They skedaddled pretty quick when his mom told his little brother to go get the big knife so they could sacrifice the cat!
And I agree, don't try to sell me something I'm not looking for. I'm liable to push back. Hard.
