So I was happily going along trying to clean the house this morning, when the door bell rang. So I go answer the door and there are 2 gentlemen who want to discuss religion with me. Now I was tempted to just shut the door and go about my day, but I thought about my brother who is finishing up a religious mission in Nevada -- so I opted to listen to what they had to say.
So I let them speak. In the process of their speech they would periodically ask me a question -- now here is why I am frustrated -- as I would attempt to answer their question they would cut me off and not listen to what I had to say!!! Now, I try to respect everyone and listen to every one's opinion -- the LEAST these gentlemen could have done was listen to my opinion and my answers before telling me I was wrong..... and they did tell me I was wrong over and over again! I listened to these gentlemen for almost 15 minutes! For me that is a long time, I'm a busy person....
If they were trying to get me to convert to their beliefs they went about it the entirely wrong way! Insulting me, telling me I am wrong, and not respecting my opinion will NEVER get me to believe in what you are saying!!
OK, now I feel better -- time to go back to cleaning and homework....
