Who else got a Jehova's Witness letter in the mail this week?

[TheGerman]

Initially I just thought it was something the local group here (in the middle of Mormonville of all things) was doing. But just saw a thread on ARF about people across the US getting the same thing, so its not just local.

Went to the mailbox and there was a handwritten envelope made out to me and my wife with a local return address. Was very confused as to WTF this could be and opened it to find a handwritten letter in it as well as a Jehova's witness pamphlet.

Now, God and I have had the same agreement for decades that we've both abided by. I don't cause all sorts of unnecessary problems/drama/strife in peoples' lives as well as I don't just show up and pray for dumb/selfish shit all the time and he watches my ass and understands that I don't need to join some rediculous church/cult and do ritual shit on the weekends to know what the deal is. We understand each other. It's been a great, working relationship. I'm not looking to change that.

So at first I'm like WTF is this shit. But then I think about it for a minute, and theres a girl out there (looks like highschooler chick handwriting) doing work for something she believes in during a shit time. I'm not interested in it, but its commendable and we need more people like that instead of the lowest common denominator faggots running around everywhere that don't know what to believe unless someone tells them.

Anyone else get one? We can all be in the same club or something.

 

[Dewey7271]

Nope, but I agree her commitment is admirable

Would you like to hear a glad message about Jesus Christ and the restored Gospel? I knew you would come around one day brother @TheGerman

[Howland]

Maybe a month ago. It was after the C19 craziness started. The writer was apologetic for not visiting in person.

I too admire their dedication but don't think I'll be accepting their invitation any time soon.

 

[MtnCreek]

Could send her a note back thanking her, a few kind words and well wishes and maybe let her know you have a relationship with the Man and good to hear others do too or something like that. Might do some good for a young kid looking to make sense of the world.

 

[eklarsen]

I got one, starting the counter offensive now

 

[Porksboy]

Havent gotten the letter, mayby because when I met my wife she was JW. Got kicked out because of me. Parents disowned her, many other things as well. Been happily married 29 years this year, have a beautiful daughter together, inlaws and aunts and uncles are friendly now, and no visitors either. (may help that we live behind a fence with a locked gate) My wifes family goes back many generations in JW and are very well respected.
In 30 plus years of relations off and on with other members at family functions I can say all the ones Ive met have been exceptionally nice and polite, to me and my family. When we have moved these folks showed up and helped us. Wouldnt let us hire anyone. The Ladies of the Kingdom Hall even cleaned the house when it was empty.
I dont agree with many things they expouse but will say that, as a whole, they have ben far kinder, more genuine and more honest than any religious group I have met. They understand that my relationship with God is fine between he and I. My wife is nolonger in the faith but holds true to her values as she sees them and is a far better person than I am, and better than most anyone else I have ever met.

Haven't received one from J/W's, but we do get them every week from piranhas that "want to buy our house for cash"........

Although, years (and years) ago, I headed home early from work on a Friday afternoon. About 4:00 PM, there's a knock on the door. Yep, it wuz "them". I told them I wasn't interested, but to come back tomorrow/Saturday morning about 8:00 AM, because I was certain my wife would like to talk to them. Saturday morning, the anointed time rolls around, there's a knock on the door, I elbow my sleeping wife, she immediately jumps up out of bed and goes and answers the door. Not a pretty Saturday in the TC household.....

 

[Porksboy]

Just asked my wife about it. She said it is something done when it is not safe to go door to door for what ever reason. Letter writing is done in countries where it is unwise to go door to door for Christianity. Used to also call from the phone book before caller ID.

 

[Arc Light]

Yes, my wife and I get handwritten notes from the local Jehovas Witnesses maybe once a year. They come knocking every couple of months even though I tell them every time that I am not particularly religious. They are nice people and not pushy, so I don’t mind too much.

 

[isofahunter]

I have gotten a couple of letters as they were unable to overcome security measures.

Funny story: in the 70's we lived on a remote end of the goat trail ranch in NW Wyo. You drove past Nowhere Wyo to get to it. About 5 miles from us they were drilling a test oil well as someone thought there was a salt dome oil deposit there. One summer day a Lincoln Contenential pulls up with two men dressed in suits and ties. How the he'll they got that far I still have not figured out. Both of them got out and said "We are Here To Share The Good News"
Mother Exclaimed "You Struck Oil!"
"No were are Jehova Witnesses"
Mother "You know the Way out"

We still laugh about that to this day.

Found one in my mailbox also I’m from Tennessee

 

[W54/XM-388]

One of my coworkers is a witness so....

I try not to mention to her that the LDS have a much better pitch both on this earth and for what they have to offer in the afterlife....

I do get visits from both on a regular basis.

We always have a friendly chat but then I make it clear I'm not giving them 10% of my income or even pretending to do so as I spend that 10% myself on people I feel I am supposed to help and don't need nobody else to tell me who to give to... and that's where we part till they come around again...

The witnesses did like to try that "have you ever asked why God allows pain and suffering" opening line.....
I'm pretty sure my answer was not what they were expecting...... apparently they haven't read about the angry God in the beginning of the book....

However I will give the witnesses credit for being staunchly anti..... you guessed it HA!

 

[Shadow_Warrior]

I know a good hand full of Jehovah's Witnesses and honestly they are some of the nicest most humble people I have ever meet.
You may not share their beliefs but I would welcome them to my neighborhood any day of the week.

Had a short little red haired JW girl I worked with at the grocery store when I was in high school, we were great friends and had everyone convinced we were half brother/sister as an inside joke. I totally would have put a baby in her, Pornhub style, back in the day.

@Bender

Hey now.

I know all about Mormons/LDS. When we first moved here we rented because neither of us had been to Utah before and we weren't sure if my wife was going to like her job or not.

Apparently, we were the only non LDS people in that 'ward'. Want to know how I know? The second time someone came, they had a map of the neighborhood with everyone's names and info and shit except ours. Everytime the same thing; not interested, have a good day.

Then they got 'creative'. Instead of the younger ones, they sent guys my age that lived like 5 houses over to try and bullshit with me over sports and stuff. Took them a little bit to finally realize I wasn't interested in playing team basketball or whatever else they did, under the guise of getting me to show up for shit, they apparently weren't interested in me smoking them to death with drills in the desert either.

At some point I got less friendly and told the people coming (always different) that I had nicely asked multiple times for them to stop coming/take me off their list/spread the word, and the next time someone comes I'm going to be a lot less nice. Noone came by again.

When we bought a house in another part of time, I found out later we got a 'do not disturb' note on our address with the LDS folks out of respect as my neighbor is one of the bigger LDS guys in the area and former .mil and didn't want anyone bothering his neighbor. I'm not sure if it's for their safety or what, but I'll take it.


eta - Funny story. At the rental 'ward' they left their 35 page long 'disaster plan' on my door that outlined everything from 'block commanders' to HAM frequencies, their SOP for food disbursment/supply managment, and all sorts of shit. I'm sure it wasn't meant for me, but it was a crazy read that I reverse engineered whenever I took a shit to basically figure out how to take all of their stuff.

At first you had my interest. But now you have my attention.

If I could have hooked her bro, it would have been fucking epic. Alas, I’m a heathen and she was a good JW girl...

Those are usually the types that if you can 'break' them, they'll end up breaking your dick off in bed.

 

[W54/XM-388]

Those are usually the types that if you can 'break' them, they'll end up breaking your dick off in bed.

One of my good friends when they were much younger went so far as to get baptized in the LDS so that he could put the boots good and proper to this hot young girl.... Apparently all went really good with that plan till she went to BYU and "confessed" somewhere along the way and well.... he no longer had a reason to show up to meetings on Sunday.....

 

[Redmanss]

Like I said, would have been fucking epic. She was a total slam pig waiting to happen, I just shipped off to boot camp before I was able to close the deal.

Yep, I have some friends that are LDS and they let me know the same thing.
They are all ready to get direct orders from headquarters in Utah in the event of a communications collapse and they have a very good plan setup to make sure them and theirs are safe, protected and provided for.

There is also supposedly some invite only tap on the shoulder thing about those who are ready to do what needs to be done if something needs to be done or something like that, however for that kind of fun, you just join the Scientologists those guys have an entire division dedicated to information gathering, blackmail and dirty tricks.... which they sometimes help others with if the others share a common enemy with them....

 

[Redmanss]

Joke all you want, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho and Montana will be the last states standing when all is said and done. And the LDS church will be a major factor in that.

They have some pretty big spots in AZ and a lot of folks in TX as well.

If you happen to be a man, there are a few advantages ...... just saying...

I seriously need to get down there and come shoot lol.... The disaster plan isn't a secret and is usually coordinated with the local government and emergency services. They usually hand out a copy of it to everyone in the neighborhood for reference

 

[W54/XM-388]

The large population centers fuck both of those states.

That is true, however in both states, a good part of the state is actually desert and quite often some of the bigger population centers are sitting in what would essentially be a desert without water being pumped in...

That fact is not lost on many, and if something happens like a Chinese / Russian EMP hitting hard, a good part of the big city population will die of thirst / heat, either in the city or on the road trying to find water.

 

[Snipe260]

I met a gal like that at a bar one night. She came up talking and we ended up at a booth talking. She was talking about god and the Bible and had good convo! I ended up taking her home. We sat and talked for a minute then she went in the back. Came back sitting Indian style in the floor with a blue Jean minnie skirt on. I looked down and there it was, the prettiest clam u ever saw. Needless to say when I left a few hrs later I had zero skin left on my knees. That carpet was hell!

 

[Alabusa]

No! They stopped all contact with me about 10 years ago. I was working night shift and they rung the doorbell about 10am one morning. Not just once, they rang it 4 times. I answered the door totally nude and cussed them until the got to my driveway. Never seen or heard from them again.

 

[Son of Dorn]

I don't think I've had JWs or Mormons or anyone come by in years. Which is just as well, I'm perfectly content with them leaving me alone.

 

[armorpl8chikn]

Yes. I've had letters from them in the past.
Invite them in if you can. Offer them a soft drink, listen to their sales pitch, then pull out a bible and opener up. They will leave pretty quick.

 

[HiDesertELR]

Knock, knock, knock...

Wife answering door: Hang on, I'll get my husband... Baby? Watchtower is here...

Me: I'll grab my Bible, hang on...

Wife: Making popcorn now!

[PinesAndProjectiles]

We received one last week. I was impressed at the amount of effort they put in.

It went in the trash along with the rest of the junk mail.
They haven't knocked on the door yet, but I'm guessing it's only a matter of time as the Hall is not too far away.

 

[Clearlight]

Haven’t been doorknocked for a while. Probably because last time they did over a year
ago, I answered the door in my underpants with a boner. Had just worked til 0400 the
night before, and it was around 0800 when I got door knocked. ‘ Oh sorry’ the wide
eyed lady said, as she backed away from the door quickly . I thanked her for the good
work they do spreading the word of the lord, as I heard her walking away. They haven’t
been back since then for some reason....

 

[EGwhisper]

People are disgusting. This Jehovas Witness is using a time of confusion and fear to pull at the heartstrings and appear that she "cares for you by leaving a note instead of showing up at your doorstep and giving you COVID".

I'm sick of hearing the "We're in this together" bullshit. "We're in this together" = please give me money because my sales are down.

[Shootin Stuff]

Are these the ones that let you have multiple wives?

And they are all super obedient or something?

A harem of hand picked hotties doting on your every need would be pretty tempting for anyone if it weren’t for all the other drawbacks.

 

[DuneBoer]

My mothers first husband was a JW. He beat her and my half brother. He molested my half sister. Things became too much for my mother and she divorced that asshole and took the kids. The JW church excommunicated her. She talked to church members and elders to no avail.

I worked in a small community in California for 3 years. Two registered sex offenders were JW. One was a convicted arsonist.

My ex brother in law was a draft dodger JW during the VN war. He beat my sister. His brother was a stand up guy. He volunteered for the Marine Corps because he was so ashamed of his brother.

My experience with them is they are lying POS. Lie to your face.

They don't believe in getting blood transfusions. My mom is 94 and needed one. Even though she was excommunicated other family members tried to talk her out of it.

The church was started by a defrocked methodist I believe. Only 144 people get to go to heaven is what they think. Got no use for them. They are nothing but a cult.

 

[acudaowner]

starting your own church as a means of a tax exempt is really a smart idea legal and almost free to do .everyone should start on . but starting your own hate group is looking like its a far more profitable thing to do look at antifa and the blm . 1 year 250 million dollars all tax free you just have to be willing to burn , loot and kill black mail and extort and yell racist at everyone and anyone and corporate America will pay willingly while the government does nothing but protect you .
