I only had a Jehovah's Witness stop by once during college. She was wearing a really nice, expensive looking fur coat. After handing me an unwanted religious magazine - I think it was called the Lighthouse or something like that - she asked me if I would make a donation to her organization. I told her, "Ma'am, I'm a college student who barely has the money to pay rent and utilities each month. Judging by your coat, it seems more appropriate that I ask you for a donation."

I never had anyone soliciting for money at my house again.

**Disclaimer: I've got some JW friends, so I know that it's part of their religion to go door to door spreading their beliefs to everyone. I've got no problem with that, because all you have to say is "Thank you, but I'm not interested. I already have a church that I'm happy with."

However, I draw the line at people decked out in expensive furs asking me for money.***
