Mormon missionaries are generally cordial, and they don't get out to go door-to-door any earlier than 9:00 am, so the idea that they're rude or that they wake people up too early, or anything like that.
People sometimes express frustration at being interrupted and having to answer the door and talk to Mormon missionaries, but missionaries generally go away when asked to, and you don't have to open your door to them if you don't want to, so this makes little sense to me.
If anything, people should have a positive attitude towards Mormon missionaries. These young men take 2 years from their life to spread a message which they feel has made them happier, healthier people, and which they think could help you out as well. They're not arrogant for thinking their religion is the only true one (Christians think Jews have it wrong, but that doesn't mean they think Jews are stupid, or whatever), and they're doing something they think will make you happier, so shouldn't you be grateful?
