So, tell me, what is on your mind at the moment? (Part 2)

The best piece of philosophy I’ve read lately comes from Chuck Tingle. And this is why I’ve been urging people to take him seriously

We get those here, occasionally as well. But not as much now, after COVID. Speaking of religious people coming to doors, apparently my grandma almost became Mormon when they came to visit her when she was young. If they ever come to my house, I will scare them away with my coffee consumption. I’m already a lost cause to them… :joy:

Hm, makes sense. Are they more or less intruisive than banks that ask you to take a loan?

Woah. I can’t imagine what religious emergencies you might have. Exorcists? Paladins? Potions of faith?

:joy: Coffee to the rescue! My dad used to invite one of the JWs inside for tea every week. I was an edgy rebellious teen at the time so I antagonized him a lot. Now I’m older I just hit them with the “nope, I’m firmly loyal to being a Catholic, so you can go talk to [insert one of our annoying neighbours] instead”. Seems to work just fine these days, they don’t seem as insistent as they used to be. I don’t really mind but I hate all types of salespeople coming to my door. If they’re not JW, I just ramble on about how I’m not the bill payer, I don’t know when the bill payer will be home, I don’t know our electric/internet/water prices, blah blah.

We don’t have banks asking you to take a loan here. We get a few ads on the apps or an email once in a while. Religious preachers (JW included) aren’t all that bad, it’s just annoying if they come to your home and basically refuse to leave until you let them in. I think their approach is changing to become less forceful, though

Oh wow, that sounds heavenly. I keep getting asked for loan offers here. Everyone just wants me to take a loan or is offering a credit card. They’re asking me for car loans, when I ask my dad for bus money. The juxtaposition is jarring.

I’ve never met a Jehovah’s Witness either :stuck_out_tongue: I have seen them set up stands on street corners though! I went to school with some Mormons and occasionally get handed pamphlets by Good Christian Evangelists who almost always look surprised when I tell them I’m already baptized (I guess all the face piercings and brightly coloured hair gives me a heathen appearance lol).

Oh yeah and I stopped and argued with an older Catholic lady who was doing one of those anti-abortion sign-holdings in front of the prenatal clinic I used to live near. I never saw her again…

Oh wow every week :joy: I think I would antagonise the poor guy if he came to my place every week tbh. I will use that if they ever come. And I also have an annoying neighbour who they can talk to… who washes his van at 11pm and 6am…

Yeah, I hate salespeople coming as well, and TV Licensing. They try talk to me and I’m not even the darn one who pays the license. I just tell them that my Mam’s not there, and they go away but leave some stupid note thing to say they’ve been. :joy: They haven’t annoyed us in a while, though, which is good.

Wow. You’re living a fun life. I wonder if I’ll get the same treatment if/when I’m in Europe.

After reevaluating, I just want to write purely as a hobby and nothing else.

I just can’t stress about what I want to happen because I am delusional and want some change in my life.

Oh cool! At least your missionaries have to shiver. Bet it’ll be a good test of their faith. And I don’t know but I expect most Christian countries to do the same. Or well, all countries.
