I just tell them that I am busy in the backyard sacrificing a goat to Baal.

That was very funny and I think it fits real well into our current world of everyone trying to get people to attend church somewhere, but I have only one criticism of the article....

You never call people idiots and I think the author shows his ignorance to the correct way to write an article..

People will much rather hear from a view on this subject that doesnt use articles of poor taste.

When your parents corrected you as a child , did you turn around and call them an "  IDIOT

I would hope not....

Respect is not earned by using explicitives of that demure/

My ex had his own unique way of dealing with them...if he saw them coming up the block, he'd strip & wrap a towel around himself, as if he had just gotten out of the shower, & when he'd  open the door, they'd reach a hand out to offer a friendly shake, he'd reach out his hand, and OOPS! the towel would drop and away they'd go, never to return. Funny how word would get around...and the local cops were his good buddies...so...and he was one of those guys that didn't 2 figs what anybody thought of him (much to my chagrin!) jo

NO ONE can come to my front door unexpected because my large front patio area is surrounded by a 6-foot privacy fence with gates that may only be opened from the inside.

The GSD's on the patio usually announce the arrival of a visitor. My friends tend to call me on their cell phones to advise me that they are waiting out front. I generally greet them after pressing the garage doo opener.

The mail, UPS, and Fed Ex carriers leave their parcels outside the front gate or place them over the fence. Usually, when I am away from home, I bring the dogs into the house. This way, it is impossible for anyone to enter the patio and ring the doorbell during my absence.

This foils the trick-or-treaters as well and keeps me from having to trip over dogs in order to answer the doorbell.

Yeah, a gated yard keeps those unwanted at bay....I like my locked gates......they work well to keep gsds from stripping people of their intentions....

they just keep on trucking  right down the road,.....leave pamphlets on gate,though...I use them for other purposes...

Ummm....why not just do the polite thing, open the door and say you're not interested? What has always worked for me when I don't want to talk religion is I open the door, let them tell me where they're from, tell them I'm sorry but I have my own church. If it's hot out I offer a cold drink of water and tell them that while I appreciate what they're trying to do (whether I appreciate it or not, in THEIR mind they're trying to better the world) I really am NOT interested, I have my own church and I don't want to talk religion with people I don't know....and ask if they would mind passing that info on to the rest of their congregation. It generally works well, I can see later when they skip my house while knocking doors. Catch more flies with honey honestly people. Whether we like their beliefs or what they're doing or not I gotta hand it to some of them. How many of you would have the guts to knock on a strangers door and talk about something as inflammatory as religion? And if I really just don't want to deal with them at the moment or don't have time, I just don't open the door. Simple as that.
