They've actually been back a couple times but I haven't been home.
The first time the came back was the day of the memorial, they dropped off a second invitation, just in case I misplaced the first one, I guess. My wife was home and talked to them for a couple seconds but they weren't too interested in talking to her.
It had been a little while since the first time I talked to them as I've been busy on Saturdays, so this time they came on a Thursday afternoon around 3pm and I just happened to be home. The lady started out by saying how last time she visited we talked about world conditions, which we didn't as you can read in my previous post on the matter, and then went on, reading a scripture, the one that talked of the last days where all these horrible things will happen, like greed and drunkeness, children won't listen to parents and people won't love God. "What do you think of this?"
I said, "It sounds the way that the earth has run for as long as human history can recall."
The lady went on to explain to her companion how I didn't believe in the bible, and how great it was that I allowed them to read from it to me. This led the other lady to ask me why I wouldn't believe it. So, I went on to explain my reasons starting with how horrible the God of the bible is, especially in the OT, and then went on to archogical evidence, basically saying that the OT can't be proved prior to the time of King Josiah, and that's the basis of the NT, not to mention the discrepencies and contridictions.
They explained that they had a brochure that they can get me next time they visit that explains many of the "seeming contridictions" in the bible. I agreed and they left it at that.
A week later, they returned with the brochure, "A book for all people" or something like that. I wasn't home so they left it with my wife with a small note on it for me to read it and give them my opinion on it. They again weren't interested in talking to my wife, just left the brochure with her and asked for her to let me know that they were by. It's funny because originally, the very first time they came by, it was my wife who answered the door and talked to them. I wonder why they've given up on her so quickly? Do they not talk to two people in one house? Just kind of funny, that's all.
