Jehovah witnesses keep coming to my house, what can I do to keep them from coming back?

Question

lem_hep, I like the first one. That's something I think I can convince my friend to do with me.

Answer 1

Five methods that work:

1) Open the door holding a dagger while a friend chases a small goat around behind you.
2) Act aroused until they are disturbed.
3) Tell them to stop coming and that if they come back you will call the police.
4) Move house.
5) Decorate the outside of the house as an Islamic temple.

Answer 2

Ask her why the Jehovah's Witnesses prophesied the 2nd coming of the Lord Yeshua since before 1914 all the way to 1985? This should stop her from coming ever again. Be Blessed:-)

Answer 3

At times, a question such as this will elicit dozens and dozens of elaborate schemes to spare a householder an unwanted conversation with Jehovah's Witness door-to-door ministers.

All such schemes are a complete and utter waste of time!

Many of your neighbors have figured it out, and it's really quite simple:
1. Open the door
2. Smile (optional)
3. Ask "Jehovah's Witness?"
4. Receive affirmation
5. Say, "Thank you, but I'm not interested"
6. Gently close the door (slamming is rude, but your prerogative)

Please recognize that Jehovah's Witnesses are not primarily interested in converts, but in working to obey Jesus' command to preach (Matt 24:14; Matt 28:19,20).

Answer 4

The best way to learn what to do to stop JWs is to contact a synagogue and talk to the Rabbi.

Ask him how the ancient Jews got rid of the Christian Jews when they went from house to house telling their brethren that the beliefs, rituals, and holiday observances that they have followed for hundreds of years was no longer valid?

I’m sure they had ways to get rid of the Jews, who from their point of view, was a cult started by a Uneducated, Jewish Lower Class Carpenter, who was executed for cause by the governing authority. The only education he got was from his low class parents, Mary and Joseph. These followers were also uneducated Jewish lower class individuals, such as Peter, a failed fisherman, and Matthew, a hated tax collector.

Lacking any kind of education, let alone advance religious education, it was clear they were easily brainwashed into believing that the uneducated ex-carpenter was somehow the Messiah, which was clearly false as it was commonly known that when the Messiah came, he would destroy (Armageddon) the enemies of the true people of God, as foretold.

Saul of Tarsus, a highly educated individual in the religious arts, repeatedly proved they were a false religious sect and cult, creating their own scriptures (Bible) instead of relying on the Holy Torah, which had been used by the Jews for hundreds of years. Saul often stood by as the true believers of God stoned these so-called Christians for their door to door activities and spreading of false doctrine.

Now, I would not recommend stoning, but they may have had other methods that worked to stop the house to house work and the spreading of false doctrine . What worked for them against the Christian cult may work against the JWs. At least you know you will be doing your part, as the ancient Israelites did, to stop door to door preaching.

Or

Just call the Kingdom Hall and ask that your address be put on the back of territory card listing of no call addresses. At this point, they check back only every six months.

Of course, you already knew that, you just wanted to collect a bunch of anti-JW comments from people, like the sexual deviants who say to answer the door naked. I don't know about Canada, but in the U.S., if a neighbor's child were to see that, you would be looking at a sex offense change, with automatic registry, whether found guilty or not.

Answer 5

One of my friends hates religious gurus so when they come to the door, she asks constantly hard questions. They stop coming around.

1. Exactly what proof do you have for what you are preaching?

2. If everything has a beginning a middle and an end, how can God endlessly exist?

And stuff like that...

Or just play a blaring loud porno and I think they'll get the hint!

Answer 6

I tried putting a sign by the front gate ..it kept out politicians but those Witnesses bored on through.

Answer 7

Hang up Christmas and birthday stuff or things from any holiday for that matter. Then answer the door with a beer and a blown up doll and introduce her as your life partner that ought to get them away. My one friend's mom is Jehovah's witness and they don't celebrate any holidays they don't believe in them.

Answer 8

Tell them you're a devout Roman Catholic and nothing they say can change your mind...and that you would appreciate it if they no longer stopped by, and shut the door. Don't wait for their reasoning, don't apologize, etc. IF they return, simply don't answer the door.
One doesn't have to be rude or obnoxious...they have a right to their religion like we have ours. We just don't go door-to-door trying to 'preach it'.

Answer 9

one of my friends acted highly offended and told them this " The bible is a bad book. It's about wars, adultry (when david had an affair with a married woman,) idol worship, murder, and it gave me nightmares for a month after I read it." and she slamed the door in their face.

Answer 10

Just ask them again and again to not return...? Put a sign on a stake or a tree near your home that you do NOT allow salesmen of any kind shape or form on your propery ....this includes religious messengers.
