Solicitors in the UK are what you’d call lawyers in the US. And generally no, not in my experience. I think I had Jehovah’s Witnesses around once 20 years ago.

Yeah we get Jehovah’s Witnesses - I just let them excitedly tell me all about their beliefs for ages and pretend to be interested. Then eventually I will say something like - Well, that does sound reasonable - I will have to tell my husband about this.

They tend to fid an excuse to leave after that - which is at least one nice thing about them, some other groups - will tell me that my “lifestyle choices” are immoral and I will go to hell. Jehovah’s don’t - they just leave.

spreading the word of jehova is an important aspect of their religion, so they tend to do it wherever they safely can

I’ve not lived in the UK for about 15years but growing up we would occasionally get Jehovah’s Witnesses knock. Not very regularly though.

Yeah, in my rural area Jehovah’s Witnesses occasionally show up at the door. Mostly handing out printed leaflets. One time someone who looked very meek and shy gave me a painstakingly handwritten letter in blue biro that must have taken them ages. I did read it after politely saying thanks and goodbye, and it was thoroughly unhinged and extreme oceans-will-boil-with-blood doomsday Revelations fanfic.

Cities get a lot more interesting. Walking round That London or Bristol, for example, you may well be accosted by anything from charity muggers to scientologists to people with more individually idiosyncratic convictions. I just solve it by never ever making eye contact and pretending to be deaf tbh, because I find the process of getting out of the conversation once they’ve engaged to be deeply embarrassing.

Yeah we do, JWs mostly. But if you look at the /m I mod you can gauge the response they get from me ;)

Poland’s got Jehovah’s Witnesses. Also in recent years there’s an uptick in street preachers and and various other bullshit.
