Tell them that you think the bible was written by the devil, and is evil in and of itself. It's worth the extra rings just to see their heads spin around. lol just keep "blaspheming" if you need a good laugh....lol it's great.

Since Jehovah's Witnesses restore the true worship of the first century (C.E.) Christian congregation, they are the best source of sage wisdom.
A common misconception is that Jehovah's Witnesses go from door-to-door because they feel it is their duty to get a householder to "change his mind". In fact, Jehovah's Witnesses would go from door-to-door even if there were no hope that anyone would change their religion, or even if no one would listen to them!
That is because Jesus Christ specifically assigned the house-to-house ministry to the Christian congregation, with no regard for specific results.
(Luke 10:1,2) 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.
Jehovah's Witnesses are trained to direct attention to the bible, and move on when their message is unwanted. Since each congregation in the United States tries to call at every home in its territory at least twice each year, there is strong motivation for them to move on where little interest is shown. Also, the Scriptures help the Witnesses to expect little interest from most:
(2 Timothy 4:3-5) For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching ...and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories. You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.

If you and any others wish to be left alone from the preaching work of Jehovah's Witnesses, just answer your door, tell them to put you and all your household on their do not call list. They will gladly desist calling on those that have no desire to listen to the message from the Bible.
You can rest assured that you have rejected the message and are content with the future you have in store.
What should really bother you is, why doesn't any other religion, believe that you are so valuable to God, so as to be willing to sacrifice their time to repeatedly return to your house to attempt to bring you knowledge of God's word.

Garrison told the joke about the Jehovah's Witness who married a Unitarian. Their children still ring doorbells, but for no particular reason.
It doesn't bother me when anyone rings the doorbell, but it stirs up my dogs.

It is people like you that makes me sorry there isn't any hell.
Your a really mean person. You shouldn't talk bad about other people's religion. There really nice.
Wouldn't hurt you to go out and preach to people. Matthew 24:14
Says this good news of the kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited world and then the end will come."
When they finish this preaching work, you will wish they would come back.

I believe that out of all the religions out tere they are the ones that truly do care about following Jehova's word. According to Matthew 24:14 Jesus tol everyone to preach to the nations. Im sorry sweetie but out of millions of religions they are the only ones doing it. And if u tell them not to visit u anymore they will kindly leave u alone.

Ask Pharoah...opps he's gone
ummmm ask Judas opps he a traitor
Ask the Clergy class opps they are trying to confuse their flock and fleece them of money.
If you have a great message take time and call on my door....dedicate your self to a worthy cause
let me ask you this! Was Jesus sent to play out in Traffic by God( in your mind) He bore the same message of the good news that they preach...careful if He knocks on your door or sits next to you while your expressing your annoyance...Your house could be on fire and might you blame your neighbors for waking you up!!

Yes, it bothers me to I just tell them that I am not
interested and close the door. Sometimes they just
stand there for a while and than go away.
My mother-in-law would invite them in and try to
convert them. She had a good time and wasn't so
lonely and religion was a topic you could not beat her on.

Instead of getting "wound up" when they ring your door bell, just put a sign on your door stating "NO JW's PLEASE" and they won't bother you.
