Wow, seriously? You did that with words? I'm really curious what you said to her.I tell them to go away.
Occasionally I decide to talk with them first. The best time was when the woman left walking backwards down the driveway holding her bible up as a shield...
It's all in the mustache.Wow, seriously? You did that with words? I'm really curious what you said to her.
ok i'll bite, what is the next phase?I request a written essay to determine if they can use grammar before proceeding to the next phase.
i guess i dont understand the difference. anyone trying to proselytize is completely unwelcome in my home. my belief or lack thereof in your god is my own personal business.Ok I need clarification, Are we talking about Missionaries, or are we talking about the representatives of the church of Latter day Saints?

Please be carefull in what is said.
well these kids had latter day saints badges but that is how they introduced themselves. I don't suppose people could see the light heartedness in which this thread was meant. I have been enjoying the chemical chain reaction of how it has been taken. Besides I am giving out rep for good stories why can't everyone else!Ok I need clarification, Are we talking about Missionaries, or are we talking about the representatives of the church of Latter day Saints?

Its legal, they do it every year around here.Far worse than telemarketers, junk mailers, or even spammers.
The worse proselytizing scum I remember in middle school. They where giving out bibles right near where everyone gets on the bus to go home - this was a public school! I remember thinking I should report them to the authorities. I think someone must have because they were only there one day [thank god ?]. Hopefully they were charged and fined appropriately
the best one for me was Back in the 80's. I was expecting my bro's to show up and we were going to get some burritos then catch the Ramones at the Santa Cruz Civic. I was in the shower when the door bell rang so I tossed a towel aroung my waist and went to let them in. Suprise, there stood a 50 something woman with a 19-20 old hottie blonde. my first though was oh **** I got drunk and knocked this one up and she brough her mom. The the older one said...oh my I see we have come at a bad time, let us just leave these broshures [Watchtower] and come back later. I think I said "oh **** Mormons? then I whipped off my towel looked at the hottie and said "you can come in if you want [pause] naw forget it you probably don't F**K and shut the door
Bible distribution on public school property is not legal, its a violation of the establishment clause. Gideon has lost in court in various states and just tends to move around when they get caught and lose.Its legal, they do it every year around here.

That's what they hope for but in the 90s they even lost in places like Indiana, Missouri, Louisiana, etc. If nobody realized it usually the ACLU will step in and set things straight for themhey it's Arkansas....you really expect those dumb bastards to have read the constitution?
j/k
Actually it's not, not here anyway. Something about it not being during school hours, outside, and the fact schools must allow all religions to be able to hand out material.Bible distribution on public school property is not legal, its a violation of the establishment clause.

When I was in Hi school we were told we were not allowed to have our Christian club, because you cannot legally gather on Federal property for religous use. We fought it, we won in teh long run. Some places people seem pretty hardcore about the seperation of church and stateActually it's not, not here anyway.

Arkansas is not one of the places, I can promise you that.When I was in Hi school we were told we were not allowed to have our Christian club, because you cannot legally gather on Federal property for religous use.

What distinction are you making? I don't care if they're selling Jesus, Allah or a Holy Goat - I don't have a sign at the bottom of my driveway saying "Please come on in and waste my time."Ok I need clarification, Are we talking about Missionaries, or are we talking about the representatives of the church of Latter day Saints?
