What is the best way to get rid of someone preaching to you?

On the subway the other day I started yelling loudly that if they kept losing Jesus, they should put his picture on a milk carton and leave me the hell alone.

The sad thing about those kinds of people is they are so closed minded that they can't stand to listen to someone else's religious points of view.

So agree.

Man! Thats got to be tough. People preaching at you all day long. Have you tried reverse psychology? Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire. You can still be the individual you want to be. Look up the words (no speak English) in any other language you choose. Throw that back at them and shake your hands at them. That might help.

I either stonewall them or make sarcastic digs at their efforts..... Sometimes I start preaching to them about aliens just to annoy them for a bit of fun.

You could tell them you are an apostate!

I tell them I'm a Buddhist..

I typically just ignore them. They get to live with that.

I read a meme once in which the guy said each time someone came to him pushing their religion that he would try to sell them drugs which of course would function as evangelism repellent. lol.

If they are Christian, I always go for putting my head down and reciting some Latin ~ usually gets them to walk away at a pretty quick speed. Thank you, ten years of Catholic school.

Haha! Kyrie Eleison!

I like saying that I stopped practicing Christianity when I got it perfect. I then offer them advice.

I tell them that their 10 commandments are now part of the law, and since I'm not in jail I must be observing them, no need to go to church every week to re-learn them..

Did you hear the following joke?

One day two people rang my doorbell and when I answered they gave me a blank pamphlet. I said "This doesn't have anything on it" One of them responded "I know, we're atheists"

Stop listening and consider what they're saying to be irrevalent to you.

I deal with random preaching with the question: do you believe in the power of Satan? They will of course say yes; I then ask them in a very dead pan voice,if they are a virgin? Most become uncomfortable at that point and leave. If they answer yes, I suggest I could use them as a good sacrifice, I don't no what to ask if they say no as that hasn't happened yet. Any suggestions?

Well, if they are virgins they can touch unicorns.

I think humor is the best way.

When they ask me if I've found Jesus Christ as my personal savior, I tell them that I'm already seeing a savior. He may not have the abs, but those extra hands give a great massage.

You could reply with "Oh my, you've lost him again?"

Or maybe, "Yah, he's passed out under the coffee table."

Walk away quickly before they can run you down!
