April 6 2010:
Selling Jesus

view map

Aldershot, Hampshire

I met these two Mormons in the street today and since I was on my own and had plenty of time, I decided to share a discussion with them. I do wonder about spiritual things, but cannot see myself attending a church voluntarily, let alone converting to a faith alien to my family roots.

Being good people, I kind of knew they wouldn't refuse...

wonderful photo opp! i will remember this the next time religious zealots knock at my door!

No, they won't refuse, that's for sure. I don't quite get their religion. I believe that is about a relationship with God, not about canned religion. That is what is important. They do look like nice fellows. So, I take it you weren't converted? :)

You have captured that air of self-confidence only the deluded possess. Great photograph! V

So they didn't convert you, but did you convert them - to photography? :)

Peddling religion - I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them.

I've nothing against Jesus, I just don't trust salesmen.
