Looks like I need to go and buy a couple of really blatant magazines!
HOT ROD magazine is still around. Automobile porn!
I can get my hands on a couple of Aussie mags.
People has nude photo shoots.
Picture magazine, if it’s still going, has nude photo shoots with open legs.
That would upset them.

Christian preachers come in handy when you want to make a very cruel revenge on your enemies.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

We seem to get more Mormons than JWs in my neck of the woods these days.
At least, that's what I assume they are with their little white dress shirts, black pants, and bicycle helmets. I've never actually engaged with them long enough to ask.

Read them one of your poems. They'll soon fuck off.
Got plenty of poems skeptical of religion.

JW's from two different Kingdom Halls usually visit me twice a year, in May and August. I always show them an atheist tract and my atheist business card as soon as I come to the door. They usually depart in short order. The ones who come in May didn't show up this year, not that I really care.

I hope I pissed that lady off to the point she, nor anyone else from that church come to my house again. Not a matter of hating human rights, just a matter of anyone bugging me at my door trying to sell me anything.

"Excommunicated" is simply a superstitious word to mean the group you are in has "ostracized" you. But that isn't a patent owned by any one religion. Humans group, we always have, but some families and or sects will cut off ties to someone who breaks from the social norms of that given society/family.
You can find this behavior in every religion to greater or lesser degrees worldwide.
It shows itself far more in conservative interpretations, even in Jews and Asia and India.

I give the stubborn ones a copy of Missouri's trespassing laws. Highlighted is the part where I can shoot them.

Despite some theists here falsely accusing me of hating human rights, I wouldn't go that far. I am sure you only are jokingly making a point.
I won't leave a theist bleeding in the street if I come a cross a car accident in which they were injured. All I am getting at in this post is for them to leave me the fuck alone when I am in my own house.

I'm sure it happens in many groups, but I felt it might be relevant to this particualar case.
Honestly there should be a section in trespassing laws saying you can get the police called for soliciting. I don't know so much about shooting.
