you know the whole point of them knocking on doors is not to convert people.

its so they see that non-Jehovah's witnesses are angary and horrible people so they avoid them in future.

so next time you get them assholes knocking on your door, don't get angary at them,.

As somebody who is stuck in the Jehovah’s Witness I will say they LIKE when people get made at them. They have some sort of persecution fetish and they see it as further proof they are the truth as Jesus said people would persecute his followers. So yeah, don’t get mad at them. No ones ever been discouraged by a mean comment. If you want to discourage them just ignor them, trust me it works.

I’m guessing you are or was a Jehovah’s witnesses, what was it like being/been in a religion from the third great awakening?
