Jehovah's Witnesses

One of my closest friends is a witness. I am not overly religious myself but I am glad it gives her peace. I talked to a minister of the religion I was brought up in and he explained that in the Bible it says it is your duty to go out and spread the word of God and the witnesses just practice it more consistently. Hearing that made me more comfortable around them. I am polite and explain that I respect what they are doing and in the grand scheme of things we are in agreement but some of the details we disagree on and politely excuse myself. .......i have another female friend who answers the door naked when ever they go to get house. They don't contact her anymore .

The Baptists do it, too.

Back in preaching days I got a call from my mom saying the nicest people knocked on her door, wanting to talk about God, but they didn't seem like Witnesses.

When she said it was a man and a woman, I told her that eliminated the Mormons.

She said she told them that if she wanted to talk to someone or ask questions she'd come to me, they gracefully bowed out and said they wouldn't want to insert themselves between mother and son and encouraged her to talk to me.

That eliminated the Witnesses.

Yup. Our little local Baptist Church was out that day.
