RE: How do you make the door to door religious people go away?

I used to do that with those street preachers. They'd start their sales pitch and I'd sail straight past with a cheery "no thanks, I'm a Satanist," then listen for the gasps and splutters. My darling Sam used to grab my arm and steer me well clear of the idiots if she spotted them first.
Other times, if they're handing out leaflets, I've taken one then screwed it up and tossed it over my shoulder as I walk past. Bonus points if you hit them with it.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

If they come with children the nudity works wonders. Found this out while working graveyard. JW's did not want to chat any more once they met mini-me.
Living in an old warehouse, we're never bothered anymore. Even at halloween we get no visitors.

You could try fixing your house up to look like this:
like these nice people did.

I just tell them no thanks I worship Satan. Usually works, I guess it's the most common way since I read the post.
Live every day as if already dead, that way you're not disappointed when you are.

Wait... I seem to recall that in the Medieval era that they had a relatively low tech way of getting unwelcome visitors off their porch.
Wait!
I know!

Simples.

I usually wear my "There's probably no Jehovah, so go ahead and have that blood transfusion." t-shirt.

Why not the atheist forum t-shirt.
It would be fun to have some jws to argue with.
Which makes me wonder why they bother going house to house in the 21st century, everyones connected now.
