It's illegal to claim you belong to a part of a registered charity organisation and scam people into giving you money that will not go to the charity you claim to belong to. Ask to see their registered charity liscence number.

I'm always cautious about answering the door to people.
There was a man in my area who said he was working for a home security thing and that he had to look around to house to find places to put the alarms.
He came back and robbed the houses later, because he knew where everything was. ._.

[Shinryu]

Well, I don't open the door and that's it, I know the people living here good enough to tell who is who, and someone who's carrying a bag of postcards with them and knocks at other doors as well isn't likely to be a person wanting to visit my mum or so.

(so ya'll know, if you don't want JWs to come to your door, but a Keep Out or Private Property sign up. We're not supposed to go into houses like those.)

But they still do, dear.

~Barty

Actually I think we have too. Our religion is pretty different than others... there is no different churches, always just churches of an area like a world-wide chain. Every church (or congregation as we call them) is kind and warm, and you are always greeted my happy friendly people. That's just how our religion works, and how we're advised to be. So when they make a world-wide announcement, we follow it. So they advise us to stay away from "Private Property" or "Keep Out" houses. Though, some people still do, perhaps by mistake, or because they didn't know your not supposed to do it. :3

...or because they just don't care about what they're told?

Christians are ALL told to even love their enemies, but not even the pontifex does v.v
So maybe there are just some JW's that ignore the rule about not going to Keep-Out-Houses?

Just because your religion is "different" and the guidelines say you to be "nice and kind to everyone", doesn't
mean that everyone is.

People have different personalities. I've met some pretty decent Christians as an example, who
don't bother me about stuff, and still think of me as an equal. Then there are the Christians
who block my path when I'm trying to catch the train, just so they can tell me how
offensive my black skull T-shirt is.

Believe it or not, not everyone in your religion is going to be hippy happy and nice and kind
to eeeveryone. It doesn't matter what you are advised to do - a lot of people take stuff into their
own hands.

Like that "Thou shalt not kill" or whatever thing from the bible. Yet there is the KKK and
religious nutcases who have gone around killing people in the name of God.

You cannot say that every JH is like you. You cannot say that every JH acts exactly
how they are told to. People do things the way they see fit. And the JH's I've met, and
heard stories about, they don't care one damn about 'Private property' and etc.

[Bartimaeus]

Yes, there are alot of radicals of any religion, Christianity included. People like to twist the words of the bible into their own hands.
For example: Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not kill anyone who is exactly like me.
Thou shalt not kill anyone who is a Christian.

Is there any chance to find out how many Christians out of how many are eating meat?
'Thou shalt not kill.'

That phrase is about humans. You aren't supposed to kill humans.

Let's just keep the vegetarian vs. Not vegetarian out of this thread, unless it is a
conversation that comes up with someone who according to their religion can't eat meat,
mkay?

I think there may be something in the bible about God being against all animals who eat other animals. :/
