Would you let a Jehova's Witness in the house?

hahahah  yes, I did once because they said they wanted to have a conversation, which IMPLIES a two sided discussion.  BOY!  was I wrong!  Never again...

I think your problem would be getting witnesses.

no.you should not believe in that,many people get offended but not me.u should believe god instead of that stuff.what i'm saying is some people just say they saw spirits just to get attention,if u see a video or a tv show that shows "Spirits"it's just a flashlight on the wall or a holographic projector.e-mail me sometime at surferchick@yahoo.com

answer the door with a big kitchen knife in your hand, and ask them which one is prepared to die for Jesus

why would i want to change anyone's mind? if i were a jehovah's witness, then it would be part of my spiritual job, wouldn't it? you sound like you're venting and maybe you're angry--perhaps you should check it out and see what's bothering you about this forum. Peace

You should become a Jehovah's Witness yourself first. Afterward, you can pursue a relationship with a Witness girl.

I'm Jewish, don't worry! For me, I would think it would a great thing to do as a mezzuzah does bless the house. Are you putting one up out of respect for your step family or because you do indeed think it will be a blessing and a "mitzvah" to do? If you truly believe in it's sanctity, as it is a sacred object whether then to appease your step family then it's fine.

JW heaven...\nAll those doors and no one to chase them off.\nOr would it be a form of hell for them?\nTormented by perpetual knocking and no one to convert...

When the JW come to my door I invite them in and give one a vacuum cleaner and the other a duster and tell them their duties! Before I will listen to them!\n\nSome do it actually! When they have finished call the cops because they wont leave your property. You wont see them again!

Jehovah's witnesses. Mormons tend to challenge you on your beliefs. In my past experiences, when a Jehovah's witness came to my door, if I told them I was catholic (which I'm not) they would just say "ok" and leave. Mormons, on the other hand, wanted to "compare notes!!" I actually made friends with 4 mormon missionaries, and they really could have gotten into trouble if their superiors knew what they were doing! See, when mormons are going door to door, they aren't allowed to have radios, t.v.'s, or anything else that distracts them from their studies. (this was told to me by these guys.) Well, to make a long story short, they used to come to my house so they could sing karaoke with my girls and me. I have a system set up for home use as well as 2 others that I use for business. We had a good time. :)

because they told me the truth, jesus is God's son and not God as believed by many christian religions, noer his he part of a trinity. Jehovah is God's name whether it is taken out of the bible or not.\n\nthe first contact I had with witnesses, was when my mother said close the curtains and turn off the TV them bible bashers are here again, well that made me curious to know what they had to say, I had a freind who's parents studied, and bought a book printed by the witnesses in a charity shop, after reading it cover to cover, it touched a nerve.\n\nbut a few years went by and me and my partner moved in together, he worked for a JW and came home with stories I could not believe about the world ending and some dragon or other, but after our first christmas in our new house we decided to contact the witnesses and because we knew some of they're beliefs we took down all the decorations so we would not offend them.\n\nthe couple that came were an older married couple whos child went to school with my husband and who he had known for some time, and the main thing I remember from that meeting was the love that they spoke of within the congregation, so we started to study, within 3 months we got married because we were living together, my husband got baptised and I got pregnant, thats over 18 yuears ago now, we had some hard times as non of our families share our beliefs and we went from our first christmas to understand how wrong it is to celebrate that.\n\nI am not and have never been brainwashed into thinking what I beleive, I have struggled with it at times and we are encouraged to study the bible avidly. I now spend most of my time sharing the things I have learned with others in the door to door ministry.\n\nand just to let you know hiding behind closed curtains only means we will call back at another time!\nif you really don't want us to call, ask for your house to be put down as a DO NOT CALL at your local congregation then you will not be called on.

Yes, but do a purification ritual conforming to your religious tradition before you move in.  The term "exorcism" is what Christians use, but there are many different purifications, depending on the religion.

The "boyfriend" does not seem to be an actual Jehovah's Witness, but perhaps a person whose family are Witnesses. Jehovah's Witnesses do not tolerate extramarital sex, fraud, or abandoning pregnant common-law wives.\n\nThe questioner may benefit herself by learning about the teachings of Jehovah's Witnesses. While the benefits are eternal, there are important benefits even now to obeying godly standards in all things.\n\nhttp://watchtower.org

I used to hide or open the door and immediately say that I was not interested.  Then I was fortunate enough to work with a girl that was a Jehovah.  She was so honest and truly lived my her religion.  She was not at all a hypocrite as some Mormons, Christians and Catholics I have know.  You know treat people badly, tell lies and get drunk, judge others and it is all okay just because you go to church on Sunday.  I never converted but I was truly fascinated by the religion.  How many other religions do you know that have faith so strong they spend hours and hours going door to door to tell everyone about it, despite being treated rudely by so many?  If you are reading this, it is for you Paula my friend!

Wow, and I thought that the question poster said to be nice!!! Well , most of  you here have no idea what 'nice' means, but you certainly know how to tear a religion to shreds. \n\nas far as that goes, many of you have some points wrong, misguided and some were outright LIES !\n\nAnd what is it with people hiding ? Are you SCARED of us? its not like we carry guns in our  bags, for crying out loud.  What is there to be scared of ? NO ONE has ever been mugged by a witness. On the OTHER hand, I have had a friend run down by a car while she was going door to door, two younger women ( late teens ) who had a group of men try to rape them and I myself had a gun pulled on me at a door. SO= who should be afraid of WHO??? And yet you HIDE when we come by with only magazines or a book to offer and a scripture to read!\n\nThe Bible the Witnesses use is the New World Translation. IT is NOT THEIR Bible. THEY did NOT translate it for themselves, but rather a group of greek and hebrew language scholars took the original texts of the Bible and translated it themselves. The Witnesses got the rights to print it in mass and distribute it. THis version of the Bible SKIPs the mistranslated errors that were in the KJV and so many others that had important items left out of them. \n\nNow, IF you have JWs coming to your door far too often for your liking, simply ask them to mark your house as a DO NOT CALL for one year and they can do this for you. OR if you are really hacked off by it and don't want to hear their life saving message, simply put up a "NO JEHOVAH"S WITNESSES" sign onyour door or gate. I mean, think about it. Instead of being a rude jerk when they knock, simply make it so that they don't knock. \n\nAnd that is another thing... Our  knocking on doors. THIS IS DOING WHAT JESUS HIMSELF  TELLS US  TO DO. Jesus told his followers to preach from HOUSE TO HOUSE and from DOOR TO DOOR. Now , if you have a problem with someone doing as JESUS CHRIST told them to do, then YOU go out door to door and be busy doing THAT while we are knocking on YOUR door.
