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.

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

You could tell them you are an apostate!

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.

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.

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.

I was working on my front porch one day when I was approached by a pair of Jehovah's Witnesses. They asked if they could have a moment of my time, and I said 'sure'. They gave me the standard routine about being saved, etc., then one of them started quoting the Scriptures. When I asked him how he knew that it was really the 'inspired word of God', he said that he had faith that it was, but had no hard evidence. I told them that when they found any evidence, then I would invite them in and let them convert me. I haven't seen them since.....

Look for an opening in the conversation, and say the following in the most sincere tone you can manage:
"You know, it's funny you should say that. I keep having this dream where Jesus is sucking my dick/eating my pussy. I have an orgasm and feel this amazing feeling of peace and love!"

The last time someone was preaching at me, I just happened to be next to a pub. I opened the door and walked in. Problem solved.

Too bad we can't all carry pubs with us.

Share with them some of the biblical things that Jesus supposedly said that they ignore or don't want to give application to.

I think I am on some sort of banned list, have not had any religious callers in over two years.

I'm old cases I tried talking to them which went no where. Some if listen and maybe nod till they got done with their little spiel.
Now a days I'm a little on the I don't have time for BS and ether leave, as they have done this to me at work. To wich I'll say look my job is to help you with X but it in no way includes you telling me how to live.
