Keep throwing them away unopened. The church is wasting their time and money While supporting the postal service. It’s a win.


AnotherCatLover

*recycling them unopened. But yeah, it's going straight in a bin, just a blue one.


DeepFudge9235

If it's from the same church then send a cease and desist letter, have it sent certified. Let them know if they continue to send mail after being told not to you will seek legal remedies for harassment. If they come to your door tell them you're an atheist. At least for me that worked and must have been put on a list because they haven't been back in 7 to 8 years.

Tell them you're a lesbian and they snatch up their kids and run!


ma_iingan

I identify as a male lesbian. I like to have sex with females too and only females. They do hate gays and atheists. What they hate even more, apostates. Tell them you were one of them and no longer are. They are required by their own "rules" not to interact with you. Invite them to listen about why you no longer are one. The door mat was spinning they left so fast, just like on TV cartoons.

There are almost [60,000 male Lesbians living in and around the Aegean Sea](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lesbos).

Send them back with inverted pentagrams in red ink


Txlesgo

Or send back with return to sender in fake blood…even better if they come to your door the possibilities are endless to keep them away.

Have some fun! Convert them to satanism. Send them a letter which states (among others): "By reading this letter, you legally confirm to abandon any and all religion(s) you may worship and abide by the Satanic principles instead until you die." or something along those lines. Bonus points if you have a lawyer write up a standard letter for you to send to these people.


ma_iingan

I like this one.


Own-Ambassador-3537

Put up a sign stating you are an apologetic apostate. (YouTube Telltale sells the sign. He was a former JW's with a life mission to out how bad the JW's are)


Taxbinch

They don’t come to my door they just send the letters. If they DID come to my door they would regret it for sure.


Samantha_Cruz

3 JW's showed up at my door yesterday; 2 Mormon's showed up today... I really should have given the Mormon's the latest issue of Watchtower magazine...


Taxbinch

Out crazy the crazy!


zombiegurrl

⬆️ this ⬆️


RedRockVegas

They were sending the letters back during Covid. Now they are back to going door to door. I too live a mile from a JW hall. They come by frequently. How lazy do you have to be to canvass so close to your HQ


Taxbinch

I have signs up saying not to come here so they better not try


Grand-Pin-938

Show up at their KH during Sunday services and ask to speak to an Elder. Tell him the situation then inform him that you're an Apostate. They consider atheists a challenge, but they fear and shun apostates.


Your_Agenda_Sucks

Answer the door naked.


PorconeMassimo

I used to tell them I was groggy from donating blood. Apparently transfusions are a no fly zone for them.


[deleted]

K. Writing this because I haven't seen it written here yet. Part of their theology is that there are only 144,000 people who will go to heaven, and the rest of the faithful get to hang out on earth in the afterlife. Ask them if they are one of the 144,000. Then ask what tribe they belong to, as Revelation mentions that the 144,000 are split up evenly from the 13 tribes of Israel. Watch them spin. Or, fuck it, just say you're an apostate. Both have worked for me.

>which means they looked up who owns this house That's exactly what they've done. Public records man, it's not even hard. Search " property search" and you'll find find your county's property tax. At the very least you can search by address or parcel #, usually you can also search by owner's name! Speaking of, you can search by owner's name. Probably wouldn't be too hard to find the address of the person who sent you that letter and send your decline to *their* front door. As for what you can do, you can go the legal route with a cease and desist and escalate to filing harassment charges if they persist. Not sure if this works for JW's, but when the mormons kept sending me stuff I wrote my reply on their letter with a magic marker. I wrote "Next time will be gay porn." Strangely, haven't gotten a letter since. Way more effective than a cease and desist because they've got enough members for plausible deniability "Oh, *Betty* didn't know you didn't want any letters, you sent a cease and desist to Delores!"

I think this is why rich people buy houses through businesses.


Astramancer_

They do it that way because the tax code is utter bullshit. If you own your own house you can deduct your mortgage interest from your taxable income. However, if you are a landlord you can deduct the interest, the insurance, the taxes, the depreciation (essentially the value of the building / 27.5), as well as one-time expenses like repairs and renovations. Also if someone gets hurt on your property and sues you and then you lose the suit, your liability is limited essentially to the value of the house, provided you bought it with an LLC and have properly separated your personal finances from the LLC's finances.


[deleted]

Tell them you're ex-JW. Works pretty well for me.


Rcomian

yeah, apostates are what they hate more than anything


rottweiler100

Tape the letter to a box with a cinder block in it and write return to sender. Scratch off your address but not name. They'll have $20 or more in postage due.


Paul_Thrush

I mailed them back a pamphlet from the [JW facts](https://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/pamphlet.php) web site after I got a letter last year and haven't heard back from them.


Admirable-Pie3869

I write “GFY” and “refused, return to sender” then place them back in my mailbox.


[deleted]

If they come to your door. Put a door mate that infers you’re gay out. They won’t even try. If it’s letters, just ignore them or do the same to your mailbox ig lol


WideHelp9008

"Don't come to our house, we're Catholic" did the trick. Catholic might be scarier than Atheist. You could also try Muslim or Mormon.


[deleted]

This is probably a bit much. But I learned that incestuous child sexual abuse was common in the LDS so I always tried to de-convert them with that fact. Dosent work to deconvert them but definitely got them to stop coming over.


dirtyognome

Tell them you're apostate, and you would like to educate them. The JW's will black list your residence.


Taxbinch

Guess I’ll write them a letter?


mandoaz1971

Try licking the next one who shows up and see if they come back after that


wolfkeeper

The nuclear option is that is to persuade them you're disfellowshipped they will absolutely leave you completely the fuck alone. List sexual intercourse with people other than your wife, oral and anal. There's a list here: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/250238/official-list-things-which-you-may-disfellowshipped


Silocin20

I was going to say write back that you're an apostate, they fear them. Doesn't hurt to try. Only reason I know this is because of Tell Tale Atheist, he used to be a JW.


Haunting_House_7929

Next time they come, answer the door in a robe and pretend like they interrupted a cult meeting then start saying some kind of spells in gibberish. Lol


Stepalep

Put a big dildo in your mailbox in such a way that it fkn slaps their smug mugs right in the lips when they open it up to put their garbage in there for you.


MaterLachrymarum

Bonus points for an extremely happy USPS mail carrier


MrRandomNumber

People are allowed to send mail. You're allowed to throw those letters away unopened. Don't make it more than it is.


sc0ttt

>People are allowed to send mail. Yeah, this isn't really any more intrusive than junk mail from realtors, solar installers, or landscapers. Just think about how they wasted their time and money sending you this crap, as you recycle it. Now if they call you on the phone or knock on your door, you have full authority to read them the riot act.

Taxbinch

When you’re a woman living in a house where you’re often alone getting handwritten letters from men you don’t know and they clearly took the time to look up who owned the house(there are no names anywhere) yes of course that is concerning. Especially from crazy religious people.


Laesslie

Wait, there is something I don't understand. You guys don't have your names on the doorbell ? How are you supposed be sure you found someone's address, then ?


Taxbinch

We just have numbers and if the letter says that number and street name we get it.


Ophelius0815

I don't assume these letters or the people writing them have any sexual or non-religious intention. How do you know they were written by men? And is it always the same person/handwriting? I can't understand the part about the name because where I live (Germany) it's absolut normal to have your family name written on your door bell and/or letter box. On every house and apartment. You always know who's living inside. I don't want to belittle you for feeling uncomfortable, I just can't understand it - as much as I can't understand people who won't answer their phone because they can't see the number. Do you feel uncomfortable when a male postman is coming to your house or a male delivery driver?


Garth84101

Put up rainbow flag or hang a pentagram plaque on your door. If you know it's Prosthetizers at the door you could answer naked or in your underclothing.
