Now one of my workmates was getting ready for a fancy dress party. he was dressed as a skeleton, has mates were the grim reaper and the devil.
They are quietly finishing off their face paint and listing to their Black Sabbath records when there is a knock at the door.
The Grim Reaper opens the door...
"Of course you can come it, we are just about to start worshiping Belezbub :cool: "
Never did find out what religion they were selling :rolleyes:
The thing that really pizzes me off about all these religious nutters that bang on your door is their inherent dishonesty. This is flying in the face of their avowed 'principles' of honesty.
To wit:
Last week two fairly sickly looking Sheilas, bearing suspicious looking leather tomes, ventured down our driveway, whilst I was washing the car.
I greeted them politely, but immediately they went into their speil: 'We are bearing a message of hope in this traumatised world, we just want to bring some happy thoughts into your day!"
I responded that they were doing no such thing, they were merely recruiting for their particular sect to grow the power of their 'elders' and increase the the treasury worth of the "Church of the Latter Day Witnesses of the 43rd Parallel, Scientolgy Orange, Jones' Evengelists"
They shot thru.
If you want to get people to subscribe to all this bankcrupt, supersticious, medieval bs at least practice the principles you preach.
I seem to remember from school " Thou shalt not lie"
My response to these people generally follows the line of;
If I want to buy a washing machine, I go to a washing machine shop. If I want to buy into your faith, I'll come to your church.
Sometimes they are a bit taken aback at having their beliefs compared to a washing machine, but it is better than somethings you can buy...
