  • OP has a point, if a cult shows up at your door selling their beliefs, you can take the opportunity to do some deprogramming. A few of the basics:

    • Dont flat out deny interest, feign insterest and try and draw out their selling points.
    • Be polite, they need to not view you as a threat, offer them tea or something.
    • Attempt to address all questions or as much of the conversation to the younger of the pair (JW travel in pairs).

    The point is to show that dispite being antithetical to their beliefs and not interested (your friendly neightborhood atheist) your not out to villify their group. They are trying to show the younger person that the world is out to get them, by doing the opposite, you break the illusion a little bit and are likely never going to see them again as they will not want to revisit the house talking about Kierkegaard.
