    I actually look forward to JWs coming to my house. Mormons even MORE so!
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      I think they put a secret symbol somewhere on my condo to warn others to avoid me, kind of like hobos would do years ago[1] since they tend to skip right by even when it is obvious I'm home.

Apparently the tribespeople told him to beat it, but he had to keep coming back knowing that he was angering them and that they might kill him. Well, he was right, end of story.
        I think JWs and mormons coming to preach to me is great. They don't usually come back afterwards though. The last time the Mormons came to my house, I started showing them things in the bible and in their own book of mormon that showed they were wrong, a couple of weeks later when they were supposed to return, they called and told me they were not allowed to come to my house any more.

        But hey, we do welcome all religions and atheists right here on tweb. We didn't even shoot you or bury your body when you joined up here.

          Jim is probaly happy that a Christian is dead. He likely thinks that the only good Christian is a dead one.

              You certainly haven't proved that I am wrong in this thread, Jim.

                    Also, that Darwin Award nomination is nasty and mean-spirited.

                      It seems that Ignorant Roy and Jimmy are intent on proving this point made by the OP:

                                I didn't say it did. I said that was the impression I got.
