Some Jehovah's Witnesses came to my house the other day, and I was perfectly

chased them from my door -- and next time I will.  I have been too
respectful for far too long. What would they do if I came to their door with
books and pamphlets on Satanism?

Richard,

I've found the 2 fastest ways to get rid of them are:
1.  Say "No thank you" and shut the door
2.  Tell them I'm an atheist and watch their blank stares/shock/horror, as they
turn around and leave.

Tom,

It's even easier than that.  Just ask them to open up their Bibles to the
page where it mentions 'dinosaurs'. (1)

Regards,
A.B.
