Is it still considered bible bashing if 3 members, one of which was elderly and reclining on a walker, and a board was set up outside coles and they don't even make eye contact nor thrust a pamphlet in your face? I feel rejected. May I have a warm hug?

Saints often become saints after suffering greatly. They don't smile that much.

Poor guys are in a cult and doing this because they have to, not because they are inspired to proselytise.

The old lady did look bored like she'd been dragged out of the house instead of having a cup of tea.

missionary work is not to get new members, getting new members isn't done that way ( new members are gotten thru friendship, school or family )

missionary work is to reinforce devotion to the organisation and when it's the elderly the cult has their eye on the will
