emotional black mail is an extended family of JWs coming onto my land including small children, babes in arms and old people on walkers to 'talk to me' about the 'Truth'!
Mostly they go when I tell them I am not interested, yet a few have hung about in the expectation that I will feel sorry for them and think their extended family is 'cute' so I won't take their trespassing further. It is blatant emotional blackmail.
What is outrageous?
That.
I seem to live near a JW terrorist 'cell' as what I have described is semi-regular. -

Oh brother! (where art thou?)
It's very easy.. Tell them you're not interested and to get off your porch, then shut the door.

Jesus did it, and told His followers to do it, we're following in His steps.
And most governments allow it. (If you'd like to go where our work is banned by the government, you can live in North Korea.)

Jesus and his followers were self promoting in the Bible EVEN if you believe that the Bible has any validity, which I don't, so why put your sh!t onto me?
And most governments allow it. (If you'd like to go where our work is banned by the government, you can live in North Korea.)
It is OK unless you trespass, which JWs do on a constant and enduring basis if the owner of the land is unwilling.
JWs cheat the law in my country ALL the time, after the eventhence my comments about emotional blackmail.
They push the legal limits in Australia and I suspect many other countries worldwide.
Great religious moral principle, flouting the laws all over the world~! -

The Author of morals is God; Divine morals and laws supersede any law of man!
So if man wants us to do something God doesn't, as in killing people, we refuse.
The obverse is also true: if man tells us to
stop
doing something that God wants us to do, like preaching to others about His Kingdom (as Jesus did), we obey God, and keep on.
Sorry you don't understand that.
Our message we share with others is very different from what you might hear in church, you would be surprised. I was when I first heard it.it made sense.

Why do you break the law and trespass to do this?
It is both illegal and immoral.
To you it might make sense, yet what gives you the right to prevail on others with your opinion?
To sensible sane people it is patent nonsense and your entering our property to tell us your opinions is at best an invasive intrusion, followed by an invasion of privacy and at worst illegal, breaking the secular law. -

You don't know
what
our message is, because you've never listened!
That is prejudicial, bigoted ignorance, calling something nonsense without knowing what it is.

Why should I have to?
Why should they have to read your mind and know to not come on to
your
porch?
Do you take the same line with the guys and girls with clipboards who want you to change your phone provider?
All lined up - get your ducks in a row. -

I do.
I'm generally hostile to strangers with clipboards knocking on my door. Unless I'm short on food, and have made the crossover into the taboo culinary delights of longpig.
It is not enough that I succeed. Everyone else must fail. -

Hope Tas doesn't mind
Mr. Gilley offered me a job, if I'd move to Branson, MO. Never did.
That would tag Tas to me as a citizen of the United States of America.
A non-Yank would not generally, automatically, write "Branson, MO".
