(70,683 posts)1- My mother would freak, "I *have* my religion!1"
2- I was educated here at DU about how the JW enhanced our liberties by going to the SCotUS to assert rights to whatever.
3- They LUERVE parking in front of my abode. (Tree shading the chain linked gate, BELL, so CUTE!1) There they stand, the women in their long skirts and under their umbrellas, the dudes in long-sleeved dress shirts and neckties.
4- I don't answer. When they've caught me outside, I said, "If it's about religion, I don't want it and they said, "Oh, you don't want to talk about 'religion' so can we talk about the Bible?!1" and I said, "What did I SAY?!1"
5- So the most recent time they parked in front, I said, I *KNOW* it's a PUBLIC STREET but WHY *just* in front of MY house, why not at my various neighbors'?!1" (Their answer, because my place is CUTE/quaint.)
6- I can quote scripture, like, if you are rejected at the door then SHAKE THE DUST FROM YOUR DAMNED SANDALS and beat it!1
I think I've said it all.
