All along the Watchtower...

[robotech_master]

Just had a Jehovah's Witless come to my door and hand me a copy of the Watchtower. Thankfully, she didn't seem inclined to try to force a discussion about it, so the whole process only took about twenty seconds, at the end of which she went on to the next door over, and the Watchtower went into my wastebasket.

She was lucky I'm not my Dad. My Dad, formerly a deacon in a small Independent Christian church, has seen just about every Fundamentalist Jehovah's-Witness-debunking video ever made, and he will quote chapter and verse to Jehovah's Witnesses at great length to show them exactly where and how their doctrine is faulty. Any poor Witness who comes to my Dad's house is lucky to escape with his religious conviction intact.

I don't even get a house visit, I normally get crap mailed to me - now without return addresses :D they've learned not to give me return addresses.

I got one of those Saturday morning. I hadn't changed out of PJ's, yet. (11 am is still morning! I'm allowed!)

He had a goofy grin on his face, said something along the lines of "I'm handing out this (script?) ...", handed the Watchtower to me and walked off to the next house.

Took a quick look and saw that the Watchtower says they don't preach, they lead by example.

Maybe they've had too many bad experiences....
