| So my neighbors are hard core Christians and are proud to show it. I how ever am not, it's not that I dislike their religion but they keep trying to convert my family to their religion by taking us to church; even when we refuse. Why? because to them being Christian is the only right way. How do I get them to stop doing this?, mind you the father is a Pastor and they have brain washed their kids into thinking that miracles can happen like chopping off a finger and having it grow back over night... yes it's stupid, but that's what they explained to us had happened to a friend of theirs because he was 'Christian'. How do I deal with this?So my neighbors are hard core Christians and are proud to show it.

How do I deal with this? *MIND YOU WE HAVE HAD RELIGIOUS DEBATES WITH THEM AND SAY NO EVERY TIME*(ignore the repost above about the details once more but heres some extra things)No matter how many times we say no they still have the nerve to keep on persisting. Now they use music as well to try and complete their goal. Example: facing their radio speakers at our window and blasting Christian pop songs. (The only known thing to get them to stop is a nice CD of Rammstein.)

| I would tell them in a polite way, that you respect their religion, and you would like it if they would respect yours, whatever it is. You can still be friends. If they don't want to be your friend when you tell them that, then they never were your friend to start with. Friends accept each other for who they are, it's that simple ![]()

| Fair is fair right?If they want you to go to one "thier" services, then to be fair, they should be willing to one of 'yours', right?It's amazing how much less interested in converting folks are when they have to walk the walk and go to someone else's services.Cause even Atheist's have get togethers.

| How do they manage to take you to church when you refuse?? That's just brutal 0.oWalk around naked, answer the door naked, go to church naked. Start spreading rumours about the crazy, heathen sex they have in the church congregation. Tell the congregation you met them at a swinger's club.

| Your main question has a simple answer.Learn to say, "No thank you."If they persist, tell them you will list to them only if they will give you equal time to try to convert them to YOUR religion.Or you can build an altar to Baal in your back yard and barbecue some meat in front of it. That might get them going. Then look at them knowingly. Look at the barbecue fork, look at them, just look back and forth a few times, and allow yourself to drool.Then, when things get really bad, moan out loud about how hard it is these days to find acceptable virgins for sacrifice because even the Christian children start so young.When they finally express their outrage, say "Thank you. Now do you begin to understand how outraged I am when you won't leave ME alone?"

| At some point you must protect your own God given rights and you need to establish a boundary with them. Let them know that you would appreciate if they would respect it. Period.

| Tell them straight up to leave you alone. If you have to, get angry about it. People like that will never leave you alone if you keep on being as nice as you are to them.
