I know they are out there and I want to make the first contact !

*** OK... they did mention "garden", so I guess it's not off topic

Are you talking about Jehovah's Witnesses?

I find running off Jehovahs a spring and summertime sport. The Jehovas
aren't too well informed about their religion (or any religion for that
matter) except for the tracts they're trained to parrot by their
leaders/trainers. I spent quite a number of years studying the Bible, and if
you can side track them from their rote memorizations, they're completely
out of their element.

One couple stopped at my place last summer, and I was able to change the
topic on a couple of them completely this summer to gardening, and they
finally left shaking their head. They even forgot to try to sell me a copy
of "Watchtower." You should have seen our neighbor laughing as she listened
to me. They didn't even stop to see her. ;-)

If they catch me while I'm busy in the garden, I tell them that their
handouts are paper, paper comes from trees, and that if they are wasting
paper, they are agents of satan. Or, I ask them to put their literature over
there in the trash can, which is exactly where I'm going to put it.
