| i like asking them questions they cannot possibly answer, then enjoy them fumbling around with their response. if its over the phone or they come to my door i just tell them i dont give a and hang up/close the door. |

| I was followed by two obnoxious 20-somethings preaching the teachings of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints to me for nearly 2 blocks while I repeatedly told them I wasn't interested. I eventually lit a cigarette and started blowing the smoke at them and even that didn't work. I eventually walked into a women's clothing store just to get them to stop following me. |

to be honest i dont make that much of a distinction. organised (moderate) religion is the cesspool from which fanaticism grows. |

| Whoa, you grew up mormon? I was a missionary once, I tried to be respectful and not waste time with people who weren't interested. What do you mean by zealot? |

There were some guys that used to come preach hatred of gays and all sorts of stuff on my college campus. There was nothing funnier than the two guys having a make out sesh right in front of them.
I always throw away the literature they hand me and tell them I don't believe in a god and they can't say anything to change my mind. I have run into a lot of them since moving to the Bible belt almost 11 years ago. |

| Worse is when you're on a bus and they trap you. It's ok when you happen to have earphones on but when you don't they just keep blabbing. |
