Preaching to the Unconverted

I don’t believe in proselytizing (I don’t believe in religion in general, but that’s another story!). I believe in everyone living and let live. I am so tired of missionaries – mostly Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses – coming to my home and bothering me. I try to be polite, but they keep talking and trying to convert me. I don’t like offending people, so I take their materials, but I wish they would leave it at that and go away. Instead, they stay, complimenting me on my smile and my looks, telling me Jesus made me that way and that I need to let Jesus into my heart. Well, religion (or lack thereof) is very personal and I wish others didn’t make it their business to try to convert people.
