    Engaging in even the shortest exchange will waste time as they are trained with an answer for everything.

    Open the door, hand back the books, say you don't want any further contact thankyou, and close the door.

    Anyone calling again you should simply say to put you down as a do not call, close the door.

    Refuse to answer any question on anything.

    They will get over it so quickly it will amaze you. Even after 4 years you are not really considered a true friend. Now you are just "Bird Food" and not worth worrying about.

    If you carry on the study, continue to doubt, and maybe get baptized, you will be disfellowshipped for doubting, and then they will have a great time treating you like manure every time they see you in town.

    I love NewLight2's suggestion: tell her that you have been reading apostate websites!! Give her the name www.freeminds.org and plant a seed whilst you boot her (gently) out the door. She'll know that her work is all doomed if you are now reading apostate sites.

    LOL @ Scully! Great picture!

    LOL @ jgnat! You sound like my mom! Very shrewd!

    Great idea you guys!!!

    Yes, tell this person of some information you've discovered about the WTBTS while going on the Internet and searching for the name Jehovah's Witness.

    Hit this person good with the UN, the child abuse issues. Send her to do research before coming back to talk to you. Or just to save you time, tell her that you found out these allegations were true and you no longer wish to be associated with that kind of organization.

    You'll have left and planted a seed in the process!

    I sincerely appreciate all the input. My intention, at this point, it to return the "propeganda" to the study leader along with some infomation I have gathered off the internet about silent lambs, the UN fiasco, and an explination of the "hova" according to true translation of original hebru text (meaning a great evil)...and walking away.

    If this happens to plant a seed of doubt, great; if not at least I will be done.

    You sound settled in your decision and that is good.

    Wow, you've been hit with a lot lately.

    Now take care of yourself and your family.

    Nah, they'll just dump 'em in some laundromat so they can count the placements? a second time. They'll look like exemplary publishers?.

    PCLARK, I agree with Bikerchic, All you have to do is put a sign out saying "No Jehovah's Witnesses". If it doesn't and they keep bothering you tell them you will turn them in for harassment if they aren't going to resprect your sign.
