Maybe it depends on where you live. I live in Wyoming, and there are a lot of LDS people here, and they are forever going door to door, more so than the JW's do. Probably different churches have different philosophies, but the LDS people here are BIG on door to door "witnessing".
I HATE it when people ring my door bell and try to convert me. HATE it. But, in all fairness, I hate it when ANYone rings my door bell and tries to sell me something ... be it a vacuum cleaner, a magazine subscription, or their religion. I find it incredibly rude.
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
