Do you have any indications that they're sucking him in? Has he been talking about them as if he believes them?
He's sort of defensive like if their talk is all casual and as he put it "no pressure". And I bought that the first couple of times he talked about them. But this has been going on for more than a year now that I know of. I don't want to ask probing questions like "how many times do they see you" "have they asked you for money" I did ask if they asked him to join. I think his answer was they wanted him to come to some type of a meeting. But he didn't.
I wouldn't want him to hear me say this but he has lost his edge and I suspect he might not be able to reason nearly as well as he could in the past. And the more I read the more I realize that they have one objective when they go door to door. And of course their justification for it is that they're just doing the lords work.

I wouldn't trust the fuckers as far as I can throw them were I you. Check the laws in his state. Ask an attorney if you need to.
I'll check into this. I hate to spend the money but it might be money well spent. There is no law against what they are doing so far. As far as I know. I of course feel the same way as you.
