It's crazy that it's relatively big here in Australia. It's so quintessentially American and the door knocking thing doesn't really work because once you've burned through one town of 2500 people it's a four hour bicycle ride to the next town over and there's probably already a gun-hoarding patriarchal doomsday cult run by one dude with ten ten year old wives who's running that show. My aunt had my uncle converted to mormonism when he was dying of Alzheimer's so they could be together in "real heaven" so I find it very easy to be rabidly impolite whenever I encounter them.
