Sometimes they come twice a week. They are driving me crazy and they don't take no for an answer. They always seem to come when my children are napping and they often wake them up. I do not want to put a "no soliciting" sign on my door as I like to help out the neighborhood children with school fundraisers and stuff.

You could put up a sign that says "No Religious Solicitors." That way, the neighborhood kids can still sell you their fund raising stuff.
I put up a sign like that, along with a sign that said "Jesus-Free Area," featuring a "Jesus-fish" symbol with an international "NO" symbol superimposed over it. I figured if they can make smoke-free areas, I can make a Jesus-free area. So far, it's worked.

My mom and dad had an awful time with this when we were little. They actually put up a sign on the door while we were napping and eating so that people wouldn't come to ask if we could play or wake us. They also had another note that said they were happy with their own spiritual beliefs and would appreciate people not to come to the door. From what they've told me it was very polite and they didn't get anymore people knocking for spiritual reasons.
I don't know if this would work in today's world but it's worth a shot. Thank goodness I live on base and no longer have to deal with that junk. Best of Luck!

I always invite them in to eat something. They are almost always young men and usually hungry, but probably aren't allowed to eat with those they are approaching. That usually stops them cold. Or, let them know you'll be sticking pins in an effigy of them if they don't leave immediately as that is the tenet of your religion.

Nail a little crucifix on the door frame, or put one of those little Jewish things there.
Best just tell them to buzz off and if they bother you again, you will get a warrant to make them stop.
I told a pair of them that I did not think they could get to the street before my pistol went off.

ask them politely how you can stop them from coming. They probably have you on their list of interested people. You don't have to be mean. Just ask them to take you off of their list.
They might tell you to put up a sign on the front door..I am a ...........and do not want your religion.

Answering the door naked does work. For added effect you could scratch your nads while carrying on a conversation with them , that seems limit their time at your door.

Next time they come, answer the door and tell them to cross your name off their list and not bother you again. If that doesn't work, tell them you were disfellowshipped and they will look at you like you're satan and leave you alone.

If they ask you to convert let them do their stuff and then say no how about you convert to mine and make up some really whack ado stuff like dressing up like clowns and worshipping HP printers and tell them they must have a loving relationship with jello etc...that should scare them off.

Put a sign that says...... I LOVE SATAN, DO YOU?
If they knock any way......answerer the door naked with a butcher knife in hand and in a polite voice ask them to come in.

Look out the window. If you see them, don't answer the door.
