How do you handle religious missionaries?

Pardon me if that's an incorrect terminology by the way. Anyway, I ask because there were some Mormon missionaries from Utah visiting my area, more specifically my college campus today. My friend and I were approached by two young men first, and they started questioning our beliefs and such. Since they were mainly focused on my friend, I pulled out my phone when my other friend texted me and lied about it being something important, saying I had to go. Met up with him after they finished talking to him. He flipped me off and gave me the bible they gave him, but he was cool about it. I ran into two more near the spot where I usually wait after my final class, but thankfully they weren't nearly as pushy. Plus I was able to lie about the others giving me a good speech already because of the bible in my hand. Had a nice chat with one of them...then they met up with the two guys I bailed on and I slipped out of sight before they noticed me. Feels good to be sneaky and deceptive. Anyway, you got any stories? How do you usually deal with them? And for a bonus, what are creative ways of messing with them?

  • I usually tell them I'm not interested in changing from my Faith, but ask them about how folks are in the area if they'll talk, and offer them a drink/snack if they look like they need it. In Arizona where I used to live, nothing was more of a nice gesture then offering a cup of ice water. I don't like when people troll them, they're just trying to do the right thing mostly, though sometimes they can be annoyingly pushy and criticizing of my Faith, being Catholic helps with that I guess.
