I don’t know about that. Usually people get very nervous when they have to actually defend their beliefs, especially in the face of cold hard fact, and Catholic Truth is never a bad thing to bring up. Of course it can be nerve wracking to bring up the truth too.
 
Honestly, this sounds harsh but…

It may be time to bust out a restraining order against these heretics.
 
They may not be heretics according to a narrow Catholic definition, but they most certainly are heretics in a broad sense.

Do we need to get into a discussion defining the word heretic, or can you google it?
 
I now just say I’m a happy catholic and will always be, and believe Jesus is god, and wish them well in the search.

They have tried saying it says nothing about the trinity in the bible I just point them to John chap 1 vs 1 and indicate my bible is different on this.

Followed by god bless have a good day.

(And pray for them too)

Restraining orders can only be issued when there is a reasonable threat of harm. These petty and misguided women don’t nearly meet those criteria.

They could be served with a “cease and desist” which is basically a legal term for “knock it off or it will be seen as threatening behavior” multiple violations of a cease and desist can then be evidence for a restraining order.
 
A blurb from a recent comedy piece I wrote about Religion in the News: (just for grins and giggles 😁🤣😉)

The Federal Aviation Administration today announced the signing of a 30 million dollar contract with the Jehovah’s Witnesses. The Witnesses, a cult of approximately 4 million members, believe that only 144,000 people will go to heaven and that number has already been reached. The contract is a five year study on the problem of overbooked airline flights.

I know a bit off topic, but hey, it’s just for fun.
 
Now there’s the spirit of the gospel! What ever happen to prayer rather than vengence?
 
Oh, dear, I am so sorry you are mercilessly harassed by these people.

The JWs used to proselytize at a commuter bus stop I had to use to go to work. There were several of us waiting so it’s not as if we were cornered, but it wasn’t easy to just walk away. There was a lot of shaking of heads and turning of backs. One day I decided to offer the fellow my daily devotional pamphlet (the Protestant Our Daily Bread). He took it from me, and I took the_Watch Tower_, which of course I bunged into the recycling ASAP. I walked far away from the bus shelter. The guy left; the bus came. I noticed as I boarded that the JW had left my pamphlet on the bench (so of course, I retrieved it).

There is a Kingdom Hall within half a mile of my house. You could tell when missionaries were out casing the neighborhood. Their typical gambit was to bring a child with them. I either would not answer the door (they’d leave their literature anyway), or I’d answer and say I was Lutheran and not interested and just close the door.

I keep Catholic literature on a table near the front door.

Sometimes, I am convinced that JW’s use me to test out their latest trainees.

Sometimes, they put the Catholic literature in my mailbox by the road. But one person tried to push my hand away.

Interesting.
