important announcement from franksolich

[Boudicca]

Not for me it isn't. 

Answer the door in a white shirt and tie, saying, "Hi;  I'm Elder [DefiantSix] with the Church of Jesus Christ of"....

Funny, that's usually as far as I get before they light their hair on fire and run from my doorstep as if the devil himself was after them. 

I'm thinking handing out a copy of one of CPig's poems oughta do the trick just as fast AND you would't have to get dressed up either.
Don't forget to give Frank his 15% though.

All I do is tell them I am Catholic.

It works quite well....

That works for me, too.

Every time.

Of course, I really shouldn't have to say anything, as when I first open the door, immediately behind me is a medieval Ukrainian icon of St. Michael the Archangel, the Warrior of God.

But if they're persistent enough to come inside, on the living room walls, on which hang 62 custom-framed portraits of English kings and queens--the place is an art gallery, I've been accused of--and some other miscellaneous portraiture, right next to that of Charles de Gaulle, there's the once-standard Catholic depiction of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, staring at them.

We haven't had any since we moved to this house....I guess they aren't willing to walk all the way down the drive.

Either that, or they came one time when I wasn't here, and M told 'em if they came back, they'd be met with a gun.

What Pray tell is wrong with at least reading their magazines, just give them a couple of bucks ,take their tracks, say you are busy close the door.

Interesting reading there. These people are at least allot like the Mormons on their bikes that were allways the first people to welcome us to a new town.

I found it most interesting that when I was at the Holocaust Museum in DC that one whole section was devoted to the Witnesses that came very close to intire annihilation in Europe.

I bought some of the key chains that had a triangle of different colors for Jews, Gypsies, Gays and in the Museum store . On the back there was engraved " Never Forget"

What did these people do to deserve the gas chambers ??   WHO will be be NEXT.?

AHA-- perhaps the Christians, seems the Muslims are really on a roll to destroy that faith.

When we ignore the people that in the past see history repeating itself today, we become blind to the fact that even if we do not agree with the doctrine, we give a nod to the Muslims that want to destroy them also.

Puts us in the same place that Christians were in when they advocated destroying the Jews and on Easter and Christmas then went to celebrate the birth and death of the King of the Jews. 

Insanity, remember the Hail Marys, had she come back to life in that time she would have been the first to go into the ovens. Then Joseph and Jesus himself.

Yes frank, I am having a bad day.

Sure is, I gave my sis and bro-in-law a gift subscription at Christmas to wean them off the hippy-dippy bullshit.  You might like 'Countryside and Small Stock Journal,' it's pretty good too, a bit slicker and not quite as conservative compared to BWH, but not a bunch of Leftie feel-good BS with a few crumbs of useful info like 'Mother Earth News.'   

Thanks for the info DAT and Cindie.  I have been buying the occasional Mother Earth News, if they have a subject I am interested in, but the huggy feelie stuff makes me ick.  I will have to look for BWH.

I find a string of profanities, giving 'em the stink eye and pointing at the Absolutely NO Soliciting sign on the front door works every time.
