Yes, you should try it. Call your group the Darwinian Witnesses

DW for short.

Trouble is you have nothing to back the evolution theory with,because that is what it is - a theory.
Jehovahs Witnesses preach door to door and put up with people like you because Jesus commissioned them to go out and preach about the good news of God's kingdom,just as he did in the first century.No other religion can explain the Bible and God's purposes for the earth and mankind.No other religion can tell you what God's kingdom is or what it stands for or what it will do.
Instead of being so ignorant,why dont you talk to them,you will learn something.
Oh yes,just because we are Witnesses,doesn't mean we haven't seen disgusting things before,so you opening the door naked,will only make you look stupid.

It would say a lot about his faith in evolution if the questioner were to exert himself to go door-to-door trying to teach his neighbors. Yet that is unheard of. Even among so-called "Christians", few are sufficiently convinced of their beliefs to try and talk with their neighbors about it.

The Scriptures indicate that Jesus personally instructed his disciples to go door-to-door. Although they are a relatively small religion, Jehovah's Witnesses clearly embody the most prominent global fulfillment of that Christian assignment. Frankly, you can call yourself a Christian all day long, but if you disregard the door-to-door preaching work, who are you really disregarding?

(Luke 10:1-17) After these things the Lord designated seventy others and sent them forth by twos in advance of him into every city and place to which he himself was going to come. 2 Then he began to say to them: “The harvest, indeed, is great, but the workers are few. Therefore beg the Master of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest. 3 Go forth. Look! I am sending you forth as lambs in among wolves. ...16 “He that listens to you listens to me too. And he that disregards you disregards me too. Moreover, he that disregards me disregards also him that sent me forth.”

The evidence is clear that Jehovah's Witnesses are performing Christ's work and thus they are, in fact, the only true Christians today. If you don't like their visits, put up a "No Tresspass" sign or just tell them you want to be on their "Do Not Call" list.

You might be surprised, actually. Witnesses - certainly those who are experienced enough to do door-to-door work - are not stupid or inflammatory people. They will usually be willing to listen to your theories and your beliefs, even if they do not agree with them. I've had fun with them - and indeed with Mormons - in the past - by playing a game of Devil's Advocate, and they took it fairly well, and were able to engage the arguments with their own beliefs. There's no reason to believe they'd respond to Darwin's Advocacy with any less respect.

I think, essentially, they work on the principle that getting anyone even thinking about spiritual or philosophical issues - even if it's to pose a credible opposition to their beliefs - is a good thing.

What Jehovah Witnesses don't want to hear is the fact that Jesus Christ was God manifested in the flesh. They disliked it so much that they translated their own bilbe so they could make Him a lesser God. 1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.

Jesus Christ never said he was god. he always said he was the son of the Most High God Jehovah. we are told at matthew 28 ver 19 and 20 to go door to door. we are families just like you, we shop in the same stores. we don't walk around with signs saying we are Jehovah Witnesses. we laugh and cry just like you. get to know us. stop saying mean things about us. but if they said mean things to Jesus so we expect people to say mean things to us. the devil is blinding all of you. also if you want to come to the door naked, you are the one who will be stupid not us. you can come to the door anyway you want. the courts can not stop us from going door to door. we have Jehovah and Jesus Christ on our side.

You may certainly preach evolution to JW if you truly believe that is the absolute truth. JW preach to people about God because they truly believe in it and also have enough evidence to back up what they believe. Do feel free to air your opinions about evolution and put forward your criticisms towards creation. I am sure JW are very happy to clear your doubts and share with you the reason why they believe in creation.

Why do you insist on the insults? JW just want to give you a chance to get to know beneficial things. Give a chance.

Try inviting them in for coffee sometime. THEN lay evolutionary theory on them (when it's rude for them to leave). I've had enormous fun with Mormons in this manner.

The way I see it, if someone 'shares' their position with me unsolicited, that opens the door for me to share my position with them. Arguing with religious nutters can provide you hours of entertainment.

no but be ready to defend your stance. when you go to people houses and preach to them you need to be armed with facts and be able to refute many many things you find yourself at a loss for words if you do that.
