Problem with that is you have to answer the door and stand there reasoning/arguing with them....which kind of defeats the point.
Best imo to just ignore them BUT keep in mind they have to keep a record of time they have spent door knocking so........ they are happy to stand at your unopened door jangling to each other for however long they feel inclined......they just count all that time.

I know - they even put it down as 15 minutes of witnessing if you just say hello to them in the street.
Such a ridiculous waste of time for all concerned.
The ones going door to door are generally the lowest of the low - known as 'Publishers' - always in pairs and usually one of them is unbaptised.... and they often don't have a decent grasp of their own doctrine. It's fun to the them in knots.
I used to work with a 'Circuit Overseer' and even he stumbled occasionally on his theology.
We had many interesting conflicting discussions.

From my facebook this morning, lol
A man walked into his backyard one morning and found there was a gorilla in a tree.
He called a gorilla removal service, and soon a serviceman arrived with a stick, a Chihuahua, a pair of handcuffs and a shotgun.
“Now listen carefully,” he told the homeowner, “I’m going to climb the tree and poke the gorilla with this stick until he falls to the ground.
The trained Chihuahua will then go right for his, uh, sensitive area, and when the gorilla instinctively crosses his hands in front to protect himself, you slap the handcuffs on.”
“Ok, got it,” the homeowner replied, “but… what’s that shotgun for?”
“If I fall out of the tree before the gorilla,” the man said, “shoot the Chihuahua.”

Out to lunch today, Tina's on Holbrook Lane, then across to the Unicorn club for the pensioners club beer and bingo, I won a fiver, the whole thing almost didn't happen, my back went while we were getting ready to go out, I wasn't very comfortable earlier, feeling a lot better now, a large dollop of Dog Oil, a couple of paracetamols and a kip have helped things a lot.
