Mormons have been more polite, and have left in a positive way when I've asked them to leave, or told them their time is up. JW's never seem to get any hints.

Every year there are 200 to 300,000 that really enjoy opening the door to let us in.
Last year 2005, 247,631, became Jehovah's Witnesses and everyone of these had to change their minds pertaining to the false teachings that they had been taught, these were people that used their own Bible, King James, etc., 28,384 were from the United States.
Recently a clergyman in Brooklyn, New York, obtained a copy of the book The Truth That Leads to Eternal Life. He was so impressed with the chapter dealing with prayer that he used the book to teach members of his church this chapter in a special meeting. Later he was asked by one of them, “Are you teaching us out of those Jehovah’s witnesses’ books?”
He replied: “It is the truth, isn’t it? When you want Sunday-school literature, you buy it from several sources, don’t you? Well, Jehovah’s witnesses teach the truth. Furthermore, when you see Jehovah’s witnesses with the Watchtower magazine, you ought to take it, because they print the truth.”
Has your minister, priest or religious leader mentioned this wonderful hope to you? Of course they have not, most clergymen say nothing about it. In fact, many do not even believe the Bible. This is an important reason why Jehovah’s witnesses call at the homes of people of other religions.
The efforts of Jehovah’s witnesses to approach people in public and at their homes are rooted in the Word of God. Jesus himself went directly to the people, and he instructed his apostles and disciples to do likewise.
The Witnesses’ beliefs, based entirely on God’s Word, the Bible, prevent them from falling into the trap of becoming a sect or a cult. They take a kindly interest in all other people, of whatever religious persuasion. No, they do not try to force these people to change their viewpoint. They endeavor to imitate their Leader, Christ Jesus, by presenting Scriptural evidence of the trouble-free Paradise that will soon be established on earth.—Matthew 28:19, 20; 1 Peter 2:21.

I actually like speaking to Jehovah's Witnesses. They are very effective with answering questions straight from the Bible and their answers are very satisfying. Mormons have all these beliefs that just completely disagree with the Bible. They feel that Adam became a god which goes against God's word that said he would return to the dust from which he was taken.
So, yes, I would rather speak to Jehovah's Witnesses who teach about Christ Jesus' kingship.

The Mormons I have met state their case without belittling my beliefs so they are always welcome as are Jehovah Witnesses but I have not met a jehovah witness at my door who has not attacked my beliefs to build their own up.
Just the way of the world.

neither. I hear both are a cult. jehovah witnesses dont believe in birthdays, which is a celebration of one's life, our national holidays.. like the 4th of july, christmas. its just not american. they arent greatful for our freedom. ok im off track here. they have their own bible which they have done and redone because it would contradict itself. the true bible says, (well according to my personal belief) that you should NEVER add or take away from the bible. Same with the mormons. They believe that eventually if you reach so many levels you can eventually become a god of your own planet, after you die.. and as far as jehovah witnesses, once you die thats it. unless of course your the 144,000. I believe thats the number. do know how many people that leaves out??? quite a few people arnt going to heaven. no, id rather believe in faith, and in hope. what are we, if we dont have hope? Is that what you want to teach your children? Just a thought.

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.

I would like to have a conversation with a Mormon....although it has usually turned into YUCK....kind of like Satan twisting scripture. I know a little more about the Mormons and would like to ask them if they really believe that they'll get their own planet. I'd like to know how they justify the multiple wives thing and also who they say Jesus is. If they say that he was a prophet and not the son of God. I'd ask them why they are called the JESUS CHRIST church of latter day saints....aren't they misleading people?
