Answering the door to Jehovahs
Return to DiscussionsDo others use the response "I'm a catholic .....) when answering the door to Jehovah's?
I was sitting in bed last Saturday morning, naked as always, reading the weekend paper when I saw some older ladies approaching my door. Our bedroom window is directly beside the front door. They knocked so I pulled on some swimming briefs and answered the door (thought I better not do the full monty). They did not even bat an eyelid and were not deterred from their introduction (maybe I should have been naked).
They started with their introduction, I interrupted and said I was OK with the state of the world (I'm not really) and that I'm a Catholic. They stopped as soon as I said that, wished me well and to enjoy the pool, (I said I was going swimming which I was .... later) and then wanted to talk about the pool not religion.
SBN.
I have had them come to the door a number of times. I am Catholic also, but I don't think that enters the picture.
I always answer the door clothed in some way and when they come I always greet them in a friendly manner and tell them that it is great that they have the courage to go door to door evangelizing and then I tell them that I have to go and to have a nice day.
