They approached me straight up as I was on my break and they made me recite something from some book Lol and then made me make an appointment. I must of been hypnotized because I'm not going to it.

They literally go around talking to people into this stuff.

Dunno if you were dealing with mormons or Jehova's Witnesses or what, but my main interaction with anything like that was when two mormon dudes happened by on the day my wife and I were moving out of our apartment, and they were all cheery and helped us for a few hours, and didn't even invite us to their church or talk to us about anything related to their religion.

It's actually pretty cowardly to placate them with lies just so you won't be uncomfortable telling them no.

However that kind of thing happens to them literally all the time so it's not a big deal.

yea I haven't had any mormons approach me, but there's been a few times that it's happened with jehovah's witnesses. I tell them I'm not interested instead of pretending to be interested just to be polite. not like I'm gonna argue with them like an angstheist or anything but yea. I feel like it's better to just tell them you don't want what they're selling

Better than berating them, which is what I would expect from many users here

My stepfather told me a funny story about a relative or friend or someone who had religious people show up randomly to try to recruit him like they do. They were at the dude's house for hours, but he was a military dude and spent the whole time talking to them about that and printing out pages and pages of military recruitment stuff and went that much harder to try and recruit them. Really turned the tables. I wish I had been there to see it.
