Stopped by Mormoms
June 24, 2014 at 1:27 pm
An hour ago I was stopped on the street by Mormons who were surprised I knew quite a bit about it and tried to convert me, no success. They were pleasant and I challenged them on what they believed and we parted ways after A 10 min conversation (they wanted my phone number and address but I refused). In the end they give me a leaflet which I put in the bin out of there site as I already have enough material to wipe my ass with. And this is in the UK and the second time I had this.

Here, we're not exactly lacking in the beautiful people department. The other day, I saw our latest batch of young elders talking to a group of young women in tiny bikinis. Made me wonder how closely they stick to their missionary handbook.

Lol yer, I wonder why they're called elders when there like 16-19.

I've seen them here in Kiwiland trapping people as they're trying to shop, recently.
If the come up to me they don't get the polite response I generally give if they knock on my door.
Deliberately target me with your bullshit when I'm shopping? No!

Mormons are chicken. Open the door and display skepticism plus any knowledge of Mormonism and they run.
If fairness, wrong as I think the their mission is, the boys I know who went on one were more grown up than boys who hadn't. It's living on their own though, not the mission itself that does it.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
