There's nothing wrong in having a faith. Lucky them i say !
But the very idea that somebody thinks it's a good thing to go around folks houses; knocking on doors; talking about [u]their[/u] faith to folk who may well have their own, shows a slight shortage of thinking.
I mean, you'd probably get a far better response from folk if you knocked, introduced yourself and your faith, and then said ....something along the lines of,
Maybe you'll be talking to a person who is lonely and who might actually like a chit-chat for a few minutes.
Maybe there's a harassed mum who just want five minutes peace in the bathroom ! Maybe somebody they chat to has a real practical problem ! Unable to wire a plug or cut the lawn or nip out and get some shopping. ALL things that you could ACTUALLY help with. Wouldn't that be a better approach ?
That whole 'slaughter of the innocent' stuff that's going on at the moment worldwide under the guise of 'revenge for the persecution of our forefathers'.
A good reason to despise those committing atrocities then waving the flag of 'we must obey our holy book' as some form of explanation for their psychotic behaviour.
