Went to get the mail and saw a group of Jehovah’s witnesses doing the rounds across the street. Never ran inside so fast. The door won’t be answered.
Can I suggest a different course of action? Sympathy. "Boys, I know you cant see this right now, but you are being inducted in a cult. And your church pushes you out to push your religion on unreceptive folks. its rude, and its intended to expose you to hostility to drive you further into the church's arms. But it doesnt have to be this way, remember that one day when you wake up and start questioning your lives".
The church is pushing them into this shit, no reason we cant (politely) push back. Show them we're not the evil they are told we are.
