Will this do?

I'll admit I can't, but nothing would be better than beating them at their own game. Here's an example of two mormons getting schooled on the bible by a black christian preacher. Those two white boys had no clue what was coming when they approached this guy:

Sooooo, you're saying you build false "friendships" with people just so you can "broach" the subject. But if you don't have the time to build a "friendship", the holy spirit just has you bother a stranger?

False friendships? Nice try.

I'm saying I don't verbally share the gospel with others unless I believe they might be open to it. Im most cases, that would be people I know personally. But, if I'm in a casual conversation with a stranger, & the subject of church/religion comes up, I might take the opportunity to share my faith. That happened several years ago with a new neighbor.

How is this even debatable? Do you think it's okay for me to go to your house and tell you you are being duped, and that your beliefs are wrong?

It's not against the law for you to knock on my door. I have the right to not open the door, or open it & talk with you.

I guess I'm secure enough in my beliefs to not worry if you tell me I'm wrong.

*I'm not JW, but I am Christian. I've participated in door to door witnessing & found it to be a less than ideal way to spread the Good News. Our church (Southern Baptist) primarily emphasizes developing relationships with family, friends, co-workers before broaching the subject. However, we should always be open to the Holy Spirit's leading us to say a word to someone we meet.

False friendships? Nice try.

Nice try? You're the one that you build "friendships" before broach the subject. I wouldn't want someone being my friend just so they could "save" me.

I'm not talking legally. I am saying it's not right to come to a house and tell them their beliefs are wrong. And believe me, I'm secure enough in my beliefs. That's why door to door salvation is insulting because the person knocking on the door must believe that you are not secure in your beliefs. And that simply because they came and spread the "good news" that you will change your whole belief system. Yeah right.

If someone wants to be saved or learn about your religion, they'll do it the normal way. They will first ask questions about said religion on the Dis, then do some research online, and eventually go to said church for themselves.

Oh my goodness, I thought maybe it was a religious picture of clouds. In the bottom left hand corner, situated diagonally and looking up I can see a man in a turban. Floating parrallel to him about the center of the cookie I can see a Jesus type figure. I was wondering what was meant by posting it. Clearly the pain relievers are affecting my brain!
