Re: 7th day adventist

It might be a local thing to hide when a stranger tries to talk religion to them.

Well, the "local thing" is more along the lines of asking if they want some water, regardless on if the "local" person wants to spend time talking or not.
And, really now, hiding is not a "local thing" at all, just the opposite.

Religion, almost by definition, needs to recruit new members to survive. They have enough attrition these days.

So, how? "Bring in your friends, ensure they are saved..."
Or "Knock knock - "Do you know Jesus? /Buddha? / Allah? / Yahweh?"

If you are looking for religion, they are (literally_) a godsend. If not they are, at most, an annoyance.

Think of them like a TV commercial with legs. If you are uninterested, change the channel or turn off the TV. Otherwise.... TUNE IN!

Thou Art God, and may God be with you.

Having the gift of gab I enjoy the weekly knocking of my door by the Jehova's Witnesses. Being a Protestant, I engage in lenghtly conversation about God in my attempts to detoxify them and become Protestants. In the end though we end up talking about power tools, automobiles and the economic climate in our nation.

Needless to say they end up wanting to end the discussion and have to leave to service more heathens in my neighborhoods. I keep them for at least another 15 to 30-minutes before letting them go with a, "Catch you guys next week okay?"

Oh by the way they stand at the door the entire time I'm chatting with them...rain or shine.
