LOL!

My daughter's godfather used to live right near the JW Hall and was constantly bothered.

For a while he had a very friendly black cat.

So the JWs come calling one day, and our friend answers the door. The curious kitty jumped up into his arms to see who was outside.

So our friend strokes the cat, grins and says, "There, there , Mephistopheles! these nice people can't hurt YOU! "

AND THEN HE OPENED THE DOOR AND INVITED THEM IN!

They bout killed one another trying to get off of his porch and he was never bothered again.

Thanks for the idea. I may have to do that.

She's 12. Problem is, she is also mildy autistic and doesn't comunicate well and is vulnerable to that sort of thing.




We are moving back into town in a couple of weeks and there's a hive not too far away.......

Hehe. I've got another story from my wilder, younger years that's even funnier.

Saturday morning, in Daytona Beach. I'm in college, and me and a couple of guys were renting a trailer in a trailer park. I had a bedroom that had the front door opening directly to it.

So, my then-girlfriend and I, having partied the night away and fallen to each others' arms the night before, are enjoying a lazy morning, with slight hangovers. All is well.

Then, the knock at the door comes. A glance out the window shows that it's the JW's. I told her, and she "arranged" herself. I answered the door, bollicky bare-a$$ed naked, swinging it wide so she was visible, in the same state, on the bed. I said cheerfully, "GOOD MORNING!"

Their eyes bugged out of their heads, and I thought they'd break Mach getting out of there.

We didn't quit laughing until about an hour later. It cured the hangovers, too!

My neighborhood needs some kind of an alarm that makes all neighbors aware of the impending landing of large groups of JW's. That way, the whole neighborhood shuts down, children are brought in, and not a soul in sight is seen.

Or

We could all dress up like witches and re-enact the Salem Witch trials.

". How would you react if a group of Islamic spammers came up to you and tried to convince you to join their religion? Would you be upset?"

I'd politely ask them why they follow a religion where the founder and chief prophet was a murdering, genocidal, thieving pedophile.

The boldness of Satan versus the meekness of most Christians. Very rarely
do I take advantage of this forum to share my personal views, but today is
an exception. If there is one thing in this world that upsets me more than
anything else, it is the bold way that satan shares his message of sin with
this world, and how afraid most Christians are to share our message! Satan
brings the world a message that is designed to kill, steal, and destroy
lives. He has NO FEAR in presenting that message as boldly as he is able
to.

Yet we, those who have placed our faith in Christ, who have the ONLY
true message of everlasting life, who have the ONLY message of hope for this
hurting and lost world, meekly, almost ashamedly, present our message in the
most low-key form possible! WHY??????

Satan knows the weaknesses of man. He has man's nature down to a science.
Greed, sex, alcohol, drugs, gambling, food are the most base weaknesses. So
satan uses the modern day media to flaunt his message of "greed is good,"
sex is great any way that you can get it no matter what form it takes,
alcohol is socially acceptable, drugs are the "in thing," gambling is just
harmless entertainment, and food is a necessity of life that we should enjoy
no matter how much of it we eat.

These messages permeate the world that we live in. We are bombarded
endlessly with them by the media to a point that we accept them as fact.
Satan knows that this strategy works because there will be nobody bold
enough to counter or challenge his message. His message in the mainstream
media goes mostly unchallenged. HE REALIZES THAT VERY FEW
CHRISTIANS IN A SECULAR FORUM WILL CHALLENGE WHAT HE SAYS!

The FACT IS, greed is NOT good, it is evil. Sex is designed ONLY in the
confines of marriage. Alcohol affects your brain and is a crutch that many
turn to, to numb their way thru life. Drugs are an escape from reality that
will destroy you. Gambling is a misuse of the resources that God has
entrusted to you and is poor stewardship. Food is necessary, but only when
you consume the right kinds of food and the right amounts. Who out there is
telling THIS SIDE, the TRUE SIDE, GOD'S SIDE of this story to the world at
large????
Answer...not many!!!!

My friend, it is time for God's people to stand up, to say, "DEVIL, ENOUGH
IS ENOUGH." Our churches are just as much to blame!!! Many don't even deal
with the needs of their congregations, let alone the world outside the doors
of the church. It is time to stand up and accept the responsibility God has
given to those in leadership, those who call themselves Christians, and take
His message of hope and everlasting life through Jesus Christ to this lost
and sin-filled world. How can the devil be so bold with lies, and God's
people so timid with the truth????

Actually, when we lived near the JW Hall and noticed them start to boil out of there, the court we lived on had such a system.

Oh, God, I'm laughing just remembering it now. I only WISH that I was holding some huge, obscene sex toy in my hand at the time!

Considering that it WAS a trailer, and that their "eye level" was at my "equipment level", maybe that was enough. They got a real eyeful of my ex, too. She wasn't modest at ALL.

How would you react if a group of Islamic spammers came up to you

I don't think moslems proselytize. They just offer you the choice of converting or dieing on the spot.
