Funny Things You See On Facebook: Hiding from Jehovah’s Witnesses

Background Information: Jehovah’s Witnesses are probably the most evangelistic religious group in the world. Many members spend 100 hours a month going door-to-door to spread their beliefs.

Mormons are close behind in the door-to-door business, with many of their visits being performed by young (19-21 year-old) men who are on mission trips.

Humorous Anecdote: The other day I saw the following Facebook status of a Mormon acquaintance of mine:

“Hiding from the Jehovah’s Witnesses who won’t leave me alone!”
Now that’s ironic.

LDS Missionaries or "Mormon" Missionaries actually serve missions from age 19-21. You can't go before the age of 19. Girls can go on missions once they turn 21.

Anonymous,

Welcome to the blog. Thanks for the info on the ages; it should now be fixed accordingly.

I'm not sure why you put “Mormon” in quotes though—it's not a pejorative term, and is one used frequently by LDS members to describe themselves.
