    Recently, several members of a local chapter (?) came to my door. They offered me information, and asked to come in. I'm a pretty inviting person, and I sat and talked to them for quite some time.

    Several days later I was contacted and asked if several people could join me at my home? I didn't like the idea of others being in my dwelling, so I said no. I've been getting phone calls, and visits now quite often. Why?

    Why is there recruitment efforts?

    This seems funny...

    Welcome to the board Truth Fighter. I guess that those poeple of your local chapter want to offer you a free bible study.

    Because they believe that anyone who doesn't follow Jehovah God will go through a genocide at armaggedon. (which they think will happen any day now.) So they try desperately to "make the sale". Good Luck with that.

    You sound like a very polite person. Is it hard for you to tell them to go away and leave you alone? Zealous Jehovah's Witnesses have been warned away from the internet. If you show that you have done some internet research, say, print a sheaf of papers from a link like this for instance,

    I GUARANTEE they will run away and not come back.

    This doesn’t sound very JW-like to me. Truth Fighter which church are they from? What did they speak to you about?

    They get to validate their "truth", their decisions and their life if you agree with them. They get to become heroes, and save you from yourself due to the effort and intelligence they have, and the sooner the better, because the world will end 'soon'.

    They're mad, but this distraction gives them purpose - to the point that they close their ears and go 'la, la, la, la, la' if you remind them of a truth of reality - two thousand years ago people would have described it as 'possessed by an evil spirit'. They want to play and be the hero of the game - if you try and stop them playing they'll chuck a tantrum and shun you.

    You could always start the study and then just be the study from hell by bringing up subjects they are forbidden to discuss . HE HE ... Go off on the UN or pedophiles or something
