Just tell them NO, NOT INTERESTED. And close the door.
That always works for me.
i was reading an anti cult reddit post where a woman (ex mormon) was trying her hardest to discourage the mormons from visiting her and trying to convert her back.
a few others chimed in about their various methods (coming to the door naked, pretending to be practicing black magic, etc.
) which they claimed would have the mormons and jws running away as fast as possible.. somehow, i doubt it.

God's birthday will be coming up in a few weeks. Can't wait.
no wonder the left was furious when elon musk bought twitter.. someone leaked some of the names of the epstein files before they went public.
the complete list is still pending.
doesn't matter if it's the governing body, celebrities, politicians, theoretical physicist, cosmologist, the royal family, and more, are just ordinary humans who lust for sexual ..............!!!!!.
Being named in these documents does not indicate any wrongdoing related to Epstein or anyone else.
I agree. Documents don't indicate wrongdoing.
Neither does the Hunter Biden tax fraud accusations , illegal drugs accusation , Illegal gun accusations, laptop accusations, etc. etc. etc.
That's up to the DOJ to uphold the rule of law and the Courts to prosecute
Oh Wait..........who does the DOJ work for??????

As far as tariffs is concerned, for the first 200 years of US existence there were no income taxes, it was tariffs that drove investment in domestic production and the Industrial Revolution which made the US from a British backwater into the most powerful nation on earth

But something to be concerned about, is that there already have been followers who commit suicide because of how they been treated in the Bereanos Pickets.
It’s unfortunate that some people get involved in religious cults that lead their members to a point of suicide. Bereanos Pickets is just of of many cults that destroys people’s lives.
There are several studies that try to estimate how many religious cults there are in the USA. And it is a very difficult task But according to a collection of studies compiled by the International Cultic Studies Association, back in the 90s if I remember correctly, there were over 10,000 religious cults in the USA. Members were anywhere from the hundreds to millions.
Besides religious cults, there are Political, and other different cults that trap people, and many of these cults coerce people to commit suicide, like the People’s Temple did.

The way many
Governments structure their laws on freedom of religion to avoid
conflict among the masses, is they allow anyone to worship anyway
they want. And they base this assumption on the fact that ADULTS
should know better than to get involved with a religious group that
can harm them in one way or another.That's why in the USA, if an adult refuses a Blood Transfusion even though he will die if he doesn't get one, the Government allows him base on the fact that he is an Adult and should know better.
The Government can’t behave like parents when dealing with adults. Adults should be mature enough to perceive dangerous groups and stay away from them.
There is no way you or I or anyone else can convince the members of Bereanos Pickets that they are in a dangerous cult. More than likely they will die for their leader. All we can really do is protect ourselves and try to protect our families. But that's about it. We have to let adults make their own choices.
Bereanos Pickets is no doubt responsible for a few suicides. But Just imagine how the Watchtower has been responsible for the death of millions with their policies on Blood, Neutrality, preaching to strangers, disfellowshipping, which has also led to many suicides. Yet it is practically impossible to convince the members they are in a dangerous cult. But they are Adults, and the repercussions lay on themselves.
I know it sounds cold, but that’s just the reality of life.

Nothing to be concern about.
Isn't the founder of Beroean Pickets like hitting 80?
The current life expectancy for males in the U.S. in 2024 is 79.25 years, a 0.18% increase from 2023.
The Jehovah he worships is not going to extend his life to continue the work.
Just like Jehovah didn't extend the life of Charles Russell or the entire Generation that saw and understood 1914.
Because Jehovah is a character created by ancient people. No different than Captain America being created by Joe Simon and artist Jack Kirby for Timely Comics, which later became known as Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Captain America Comics #1, published in March 1941.
At least we have proof that Captain America exists. Plenty of videos and movies showing he does exist.
we are constantly being attacked by scam marketers who create a perceived need , not a real one, and hence create within us a want.
if we fill our desire for that thing or things by buying in to it, we then end up with totally unnecessary expense.
we have been scammed.. whether that be something to do with the latest fashions and trends, the latest 'phone, car or something similar.. the longest running, and most lucrative marketing scam in all human history has been religion.
Religion is here because our life span is so short.....70 or 80 plus years.
It's first victims are young people who have no idea what's going on and just go with the flow
By the time they hit 50 or 60 they realize they've been scammed by groups like the Watchtower, but it's too late, your life has been used up.
By the time you're 50-80, you're wise enough to know better and never be scammed again. And you try to pass that knowledge along but it too late, Mother Time has come calling and finally you're gone.
Young ones are born and the cycle begins all over.
If we lived a couple of millenniums, no one could scam anybody. We would know all the tricks.
Maybe it was intentional to be created this way if there was some sort of Creator or Creators.
There's only so much room in the universe for immortal beings.The more immortal beings, the more Drama. Just like humans.
this is an excellent thread to read that i saw yesterday and the poster hits the nail on the head and tells it so well.
he is really knocking pimi witnesses and has a lot of well deserved criticisms about them.. he says he hopes at this point that they never wake up….
i am inclined to feel the same.
60s, 70s and 80s.
That is the age of JWs that are still in, and can't or don't want to wake up.
Because they've given all their life to serve the 10 or more old white men in NY that they've never met. 70-80-90 plus years down the drain and they will never get them back Many of these fellows let their wives die instead of saving them with a blood transfusion. As well as children and husbands who needed one.
There is a few old jws in their 90s that have woken up and posted their experience on reddit, but it's only two or three and they are devastated. One just wanted to commit suicide. Never heard from him again So I think it's better for those jws to never wake up.
And me personally I blame the Bible more than the Watchtower. That book has cause so many deaths through out two millenniums. The Catholic inquisitions cause more harm than the Watchtower because they tortured people who wouldn't accept their "Biblical interpretations for hundreds of years.
The Crusades cause so many deaths of innocent men, women and children.
All religions today are in a competitive race to see who can accumulate the most property with the donations of it's members.
If I believed in the Devil, the bible would be his main book to mislead humanity.
