Shame! Shame! Shame! on all of You!
After all of the years I prefer to be kind and just say that "I am Not interested".
I much prefer the JWs coming up to my Door instead of the following:
Hate Filled Lefty Howard Dean/John Kerry Type.
Young Folk full of Drugs and Beer with rings in their Mouth and Face Half dressed. stinking from no Bath.
A PHD Type tring to sell "Gold Futures " >
The Jevoahs and Mormons are the fastest growing Religion in the US. Mabybe "Family Values and Work and Decency have something to do with People
wanting to be Religious.
You Seculars just got a Ass Whupping in the Election, seems as if you would get some Smarts and Join the party become Rich so all those with out could
be jealous!

Back in the early 70s, my old man and I were working on a car at our ranch, about 8 miles east of Oroville, California. At the time, that was pretty
much the middle of nowhere. It was August, and about 105 degrees in the shade. Out of the shimmering haze appeared these two young guys in white
shirts with ties, black hats, black shoes, carrying their coats. They came trudging up the drive from the road, the sweat pouring off them in
rivulets. One of them started off with his spiel, and my dad rolled out from under the car, looked up and said "sorry son, but we're Jews. Help
yourself to some water from the hose if you like," then rolled back under the car. They blinked, looked at each other, handed me the Watchtower, and
trudged on down the road to the next place, about a mile away. Guess they weren't expecting to run across members of the tribe in that part of the
country.
As for Skeet's comment, I've always felt that there are three things you should never get mixed up with each other -- sports, politics and religion.

A bit dated, but...
Q. What's the difference between a Jehovah's Witness and a Yugo?
A. You can shut the door on a Jehovah's Witness,
My wife's Catholic. I'm not, but I still got her a small plaster Virgin of Guadalupe for the "nicho" in the corner by the front door. When they show
up and I answer the door, I just point to the Virgin, wag my index finger back and forth, pretend I don't speak Spanish (unless one of them speaks
English, then I pretend I'm mute.) and shut the door.
If my wife answers, she talks to them and ends up promising to read the copy of Watchtower they leave. She also feeds the damn pigeons. Same thing,
it just makes them come back.

Do not come back here
without pizza and beer like the rest of my friends. It's a matter of respect when you visit someone unannounced.
If you do, I will let go of the dogs.

Oso,
I like your wife, PS I just shut the door. I don't like people putting their religion on me. I'm very opinionated. I try not to put my views on
others unless like minded and I wish the same for me . I do however like open discussions , I learn from that. k

I like to make a little game of it. I tell them I'll answer two of their questions if they'll answer two of mine. My first question is:
Why do churches need lightning rods?
If a church is a "house of God", and a lightning strike is an "act of God" why would I want to believe in a claimed omnicient, omnipotent diety that
would burn its own house down if wasn't protected by a man-made lightning rod?
Some cults have their story a little better together than others, but none of them have ever had an answer to my simple questions.

When folks selling religion come by, my mom has always said, "Can't change my religion; my husband's a priest." During the moment of hesitation as
they digest that comment, she closes the door. Has worked well for her for many years.

IF YOUR LOOKING TO CHANGE THE WORLD AS A BETTER PLACE IT STARTS AT YOUR OWN FRONT DOOR!
Text
For the most part people who visited and lived in Baja are kind, considerate, and caring people like so many of the Mexican people that everyone so
often describes. However, hypocrites like **** and **** and others who constantly berate ?GRINGOS? for destroying Baja and not acting ?Human? are
themselves so malcontent with themselves and their lives they are in fact the very people they so love too hate. ****?s solution to strangers at his
door by ?inciting his dogs on any uninvited guest that happen to come upon his property that don?t have the proper refreshments? as well as ****
stating: ?If mommy goes around knocking on strangers doors then she is fair game for whatever happens.? case in point! I can remember when my mother
worked door-to-door selling encyclopedia?s just to put food on our table. I am sure if ****?s or ****?s mother was working door to door I seriously
doubt they would want ?her to be fair game for whatever happens.? How sad it is that people who believe so strongly in something religious or
otherwise who have the guts too go door to door get so little respect especially from the people who portray themselves to be not like their fellow
countrymen but have a new awakening just because they moved to Baja. ****, **** and your clan so optimize what you believe others ?Gringos? to be
hateful, uncaring, and contemptuous. I suggest you look in the mirror you won?t like the person you see. What happen to compassion, caring and
kindness that we so appreciate from others for example, when we are in dire need in the out backs of Baja. Just because people are of a different
religious faith or don?t have a six-pack of beer and a bag of peanuts under their arm doesn?t equate disrespect for your fellow man. ****, the article
on teenage pregnancy in Ensenada should not come as a surprise to you on account of, you proliferate the problem considering the fact that the very
people who are professing love, abstinence, kindness, and family values are rudely being shunned away at your door step. As for myself, I do not
belong, attend or am affiliated with any organized religion however, in all of my years of briefly chatting with Jehovah Witnesses I have never found
them to be unkind or rude. After explaining to them I was not interested; saying just a simple thank you, no thanks I am not interested, has always
sufficed and wished them well on their way. Furthermore, I am not professing their religion or any other as the answer to society?s problems, but
simply treat your fellow man, as you would like to be treated! If that is not too much to ask of your fellow HUMAN as **** always professes. Everyone
has the right to open their doors and minds to whomever they wish, but you can?t have it both ways!
The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.
--Albert Einstein
P.S. GOD BLESS OUR VETERANS ON THIS DAY OF REMEMBRANCE WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES SO THAT WE HAVE THE FREEDOM TO SPEAK OUR MINDS!

Well Halilulia (praise de lord)
After reading all this chit, I can skip church this weekend and go to Baja. The mexicans are always asking me why I don't go to church and go fishing
instead. I ask them who built the church (men did). Then I ask them who made the Sea of Cortez (dah, God). Therefore I chose to spend my time in
something God made. Now pass the fried chicken.
If there is no fishing in heaven, I am not going

David, your chicken coop group
seems to be expanding. Did you start a recruitment program or something?
This started out as what was supposed to be a funny thread but obviously, there are always a couple ********** who have to stick their closed minded
ideas into it.
As far as looking myself in the mirror, what I have is a bunch of Mexican friends who mostly agree with what I have to say and give me some of their
ideas without any flaming.
I didn't move to Mexico because I was looking for new ********** gringo friends. Like the new people on this board who seem to show up just in time
to attack something. *******
And fine examples of your typical gringo like DK.
Why were the names deleted from this post? I am proud of what I have to say and believe it to be very truthful. I don't expect closedminded idiots
to agree or even understand it.
Fawk the JH's and Fawk the idiots. How about that eh. Now I'm probably going to hell. I'm going to hate living back up there with the whiteys who
can't even get along amongst themselves. marooons!
Let's hear more about the wilds of Baja and your vast knowledge of the Mexican people ********

Well DK
seemed to me that you were condoning that ******** with the rant. I also understand that this was another one of the threads where you start chit and
then delete your postings which is becoming more common all the time.
Did you fail to see the humor in this topic? Do you promote flaming? Where did this new piece ***** that you are welcoming come from anyway? Let me
guess. someones fosa.

JR, ****************. 1) I didn't start this thread, as you state.
2) I didn't delete any posts in this thread.
3) per the info. under his name, this new poster lives in Ensenada. I typically welcome all new posters... it's called being friendly. Mexico is the
amigo country (and I am here in the evil USA).
4) Why is it your opinions of everything are fine, but opposing points of view enrage you?
5) Don't you think making fun of someone's religion is less than human? I think this whole thread is downright insulting. I was wondering if you would
have the maturity to just delete it.
6) I often delete my own posts if they are not needed, or will rewrite them. I don't need to prove anything by leaving stuff up that might upset
someone. Why do you?
I was not the only one welcoming the new guy, either...
Why is it okay for you to slam whole groups of people, but nobody can contest you on it?
You seemed to have a good time at the cultural fiesta... well, all the people there (you liked) were Nomads and just like most of the Nomads I have
met. Yet you still keep insulting most everyone here.
It's getting old, is this forum just for you to rant your hate of people or insult people.
Just what did I ever do to you that you always attack me... ?
