    Haha I got my younger brother good. The first time 2 old ladies turned up and we have a glass front door so I saw them coming through the front gate. I yelled out to my brother that someone was here for him. So he answered the front door and he had a Giordano shirt on with one of their sayings "World without strangers" they thought he was religious and was talking to him for ages. He just went along with it cuz he didn't want to be rude to the old ladies. So now they come around 1-2 times a month and ask for him. They give him their magazines for him to read, which he throws straight in the bin when they're gone. Hahaha he hates it, but he doesn't want to tell them to p!ss off. Me and my dad refer to them as his girl friends. Everytime we see them come through the front gate we yell out to my brother hey Ben your girlfriends are here!!! Which usually follows with a ARRRRGHHHH!!! from my brother lol.

    Minux one works (at least until 'new' ones start)
    I answered the door expecting it to be my bf and was in a bra and undies..heavily pregnant (I had been in bed asleep).They handed me the magazines and turned around quick. My bf pulled up as they were leaving and were talking to him for ages, so I guess pregnant, half naked chicks aren't part of their religion...lol

    If nudity isn't your thing or you aren't heavily pregnant, Get a dog.
    My dog has barked only a few times and everytime she sees them she goes mental.They haven't stopped since I had to drag her inside to stop her trying to get through the fence at them. Anyone else can walk past or come over and she is fine. Its just them. (No, you can't have my Joho guard dog! lol)

    I actually have a very large Scythe in my bedroom. Dunno why I have it but I do, however I do find it comes in handy when religious people knock on my door.

    Ive also answered the door in various garments, I listen to quite a few... lets say anti religious bands. Ive answered the door in my Cradle of Filth Jesus is a naughty word shirt and it has a nun on the front of it pleasuring herself. That got me a stern talking to.

    Every time they mention God, interrupt them and say "or Godess"

    things i did
    turned a sprinkler on and soaked them,
    stood behind the front door and when they knocked yelled out who the **** is it
    just didnt answer it
    plus various other things that i cant remember

    none of these worked so i asked them not to come back, they stayed away for a while. when they did come back it was different people so i asked them not to come back and they havent been here for at least 5 years.

    I answered the door the other day to two gorgeous 20~ year old girls with the look on their faces that indicates they need to tell you something. I stepped outside and shut the door behind me, thinking maybe they'd broken down just up the road or something. That's when the magazines, books, and conversation about their religion started flowing in my general direction... I'd been TRICKED! I humoured them for about ten minutes before sending them on their way.

    Bloody sneaky tactics if you ask me. :P

    The beauty of living in a semi rural suburb of Brisbane.

    Even though I'm 25km from the cbd, they can't be arsed coming out here on weekends, although the Avon ladies do get a bit persistent.

    I can't bring myself to be rude to them - I just say no thanks not interested, unlike my old man who looks forward to a spot of verbal abuse on Sunday mornings.

    Just politely tell them that you are not interested and set them on their way.. no need to be an arse about it.

    The way i see it is, if you believe in god but don't go to church ect then have a listen to what they say and have a free home bible study (like i did, changed my life for myself and family for the better) or if you don't believe in god then politely ask them to leave (like i also did for many years before i decided to look into the bible for myself.)

    in the past i have stood and argued with them about the existence of a god (i don't believe in any religion) and reckon i won... because they ended up just walking away...... other times i just tell them i don't believe in god and shut the door..... last time they knocked, which was a while ago, i wore a shirt that has on the front in red letters "What part of F*#K OFF is confusing you?" they didn't take much convincing to leave.

    I would just like to know why these people think they have the right to try to convert you to their religious beliefs. I don't go to their door and annoy the shit out of them trying to tell them their religion sucks, so why do they try it with me?

    I was actually selling some stuff to two young blokes who had purchased some stuff from me on e-bay. We were standing in my garage about to load the stuff onto his ute when a woman and two children walked in.

    I knew who they were straight away and said we were transacting a sale at that moment - (in other words, "wrong time, piss off", but I needed to be polite.) I was a bit surprised that she had walked in at that time as I thought it would be apparent that the three of us were busy doing something and it was not a good time to intervene to flog religion.

    The lady just left her magazine and they left. She could have thought we were doing a drug deal or something

    Ill just tell them Im not interested nicely, if they dont listen then Ill play games with them;

    Just keep egging them on, and watch them waste there time.
    Invite them in for a beer, or if its a weekend I may already have one in my hand
    I've sat down (on the other side of the security door) and pretended to be meditated whilst they talked.
    Start ringing people and tell them how the Jehovahs are at the front door and start joking about how intruding they are, whilst they stand there.
    Tell them I dont believe in God, until they can prove it *DO NOT DO THIS* it only leads to mass brochures and sections read from the bible, but no presence of God
    Answered it in my boxer shorts, was not planned just happened to be like that at the time lol.

    My old neighbour use to invite them in for a joint, or grab her bong and start smoking it infront of them.
    My brother once told him he believes he is the devil, and if you seen him, you would think it to lol.

    I dont have a problem with them, its just I think they got about it the wrong way, and I find it very intrusive when they will not leave. Out of all the people that knock on my door trying to sell something, religious people get off the lightest
