Preacher Man.


We had the bloody Jehovah's Witnesses around again recently. No matter how rude I am to them, they always come back for more.

I'm pleased to say that this time one of them recognised me, and he immediately apologised for their visit.

This video made me laugh; sorry, but the sound quality is awful.

    We have them around here and some of them have become good friends, in fact one read one of the readings at our wedding.

    A very young Sean Lock I think.
    He is still miserably funny

      I originally heard this on Radio 4 extra as a radio comedy. It was new to me, and I've never seen the TV version.

    Cro you are saved! Your name is surely in Their Book of the Saved which is not a book, as God directed, but in a computer in a bunker under a mountain. Or is that the other lot? I can never remember.

      I'm not sure if there's much worth 'saving', but as a believer in 'Pascal's wager', they'd better put me in the book just in case.

    I don’t like to be pestered on my own doorstep and get very annoyed when I say i’m not interested and they keep on going ..... one even put their foot in the door when I attempted to close it ! A real invasion of privacy.
    I’m surprised that you get them Cro being as remote as you are. Loved the video ! XXXX

    I'm always amazed how they manage to find us in our little hamlet. They always stand out a mile because they look too well dressed. We told them we didn't speak French so they sent round some English ones! Rick will keep them away in future.

      I've told them 'very clearly' that I don't want them coming to the house. At least they're reasonably polite.

    I hate it when they come knocking on our door! I try not to be too rude, but if I were going to practice a religion it sure as hell wouldn't be their version! Usually I try to ignore the doorbell if I see them canvassing the neighborhood.

      They are a pain, but if the guy in the video came, I'd probably be quite amused.

      I usually give them the two word greeting, the second word being 'off'.

    For goodness sakes they're everywhere. They were here last week! I can never believe it when they come around. The nerve of them. x

      They must be having an onslaught. Poor people, they must be insulted everywhere they go!

    They love taking money off their flock and casting first stones on one another

      I've never actually spoken to them, it's the very idea of going round trying to convince people about non-existent spooks that makes me mad.

    I am a Humanist Cro and usually if I tell them that they go away without trying to convert me.

      My two word greeting usually does the job. I think they are the only people I am rude to on sight!

    My father has a notice in his porch.
    "No religious callers please, only God himself and then only by appointment"
    Seems to work......
