I live in the UK, just had some friendly Americans asking me about jesus, said i was just on my way out, they said not a problem we will come back later. Any tips on getting rid of these guys i've never come across any mormons before. HELP!

If you know they are going to return. Rush to the shops, buy black crosses and images of satan. Hang them all around the house, switch off the lights and burn black candles.
When they knock/ring your door. Invite them in.......................
they won`t stay long I`ll bet
Or you can just let them knock and knock on the door, they`ll soon get sick.
Or tell them that you are not interested in anything they`ve got to say and shut the door.

Don't answer the door. In my experience, if you tell them you are an atheist or are not interested it'll give them more incentive to stand there on your doorstep in an effort to convert you. More of a challenge so to speak. They really are extremely "Nice" and bloody hard to shift. And if you happen to be female then they'll charm you. Boy are they good at that!! Just don't open the door. Safest way.

Tell them that the Bible is all one needs to know of Jesus. The Book of Morons is all made up! The Mormon belief that Jesus traveled to America is absurd! The angel Moron a native American? Come on!

As far as Mormons on a mission - they're all usually very nice and not pushy or judgemental. When they said they'd check back, it's most likely that they're not stalking you but 1) are on a 'mission' and even if its to say 30 seconds to you they'll make the effort. and 2) are in the area that day, usually on bikes, ties flapping in the breeze, and aren't too far away to swing by before heading off. Jehovas Witnesses? I just answer the door in my boxer shorts whilst eating pizza - they get the hint.

Answer the door naked.
Billy Connolly gave some great advice;
If they knock on the door, just go up to the door, but don't open it. Instead, shout out 'I'm naked, I've got an erection, and I'm coming out in 10 seconds! 10!...9!...8!...', and watch them run like hell.

Whatever you do don't claim to follow another religion. The best way is to tell them you're not interested, but be polite, these guys are away from home for two years with no family contact except on mothers day and Christmas.

tell them to get the hell off your property as you have no time for the likes of them and to go away and get a life!! or you could even ask them why on earth they are willing to let a family member i need of a blood transfusion die! as they belive that the persons life is in god's hands! so tell them to ask for gods help when you remove them with great force and a toe up their @r$e! good luck hope this helps or you could just not answer the door ! lol !!

I don't know about mormons, but this works for jehovahs witnesses:
when they knock, answer the door
when they tell you who they are and why they're there, invite them in for coffee...
once they are seated comfortably, and have a steaming hot cuppa in front of them, sit down and start talking to them
every couple of minutes remove an item of clothing
if you get down to your underwear before they leave, start a rhythmic chant, and start swaying backwards and forwards with your eyes closed
I guarantee they won't bother you again...

They were nice to you. Just tell them you are not interested and ask them to please make a note in their tracting books that you would like to not be contacted again in the future. They will be relocated and new ones will take their place, so if you are contacted later, it is a miscommunication. They are out on their own with almost no contact with their families. Most people are rude, screaming at them, shoving doors in their faces, and setting dogs on them. Just treat them the way you would like to be treated.

I've given up being nice to them. I either don't answer the door or open it and threaten to call the cops if they come back. They have no business harassing people in their homes.
