Mormons are stalkers because they have no social manners. Well, at least the middle and lower class.
Make a custom sign:
"Home Teachers and any form of religious missionaries will be dowsed with corrosive acid from above and shot while trying to flee. You have been warned."
Most will walk away chagrined. I'd laugh hysterically, ring the doorbell, and get ready to dodge. So that'll take care of most of them. Getting rid of me you just have to ask without the sign :)
Your actually suggesting I warn them? Where the hell is the fun is that?

First the endless succession of petnames and now the obsession with my cavities. Sorry to crush your hopes and dreams Merc but I'm strictly hetero. We can still be friends though right?

From the classification system here: http://www.mudrow.org/Herb/FKM1.html , I would like to imagine then I'm one of the 14 Genuine Mormons. However this is problematic because I also want to marry one and I don't live in Utah. So if there is only one more outside Utah and still in the U.S. I have to hope the person is female and lives nearby or has an inspired dream and shows up at my door one day (preferably coming through one of the thunderstorms as there is something very hot about a girl whose just been drenched). Better tell God to get cracking on that.

Why don't you get to know any girl, get to know her, forget about her religion and THEN decide if shes a potential wife?
Your life will change for the better. No pointless standards to worry about, no ugly ass garmies and best of all she wont be frigid in bed.

Because I'm serious about my religion and don't want conflicting loyalties.

I went over to my Punk Rocker friends house after I got home from my mission, and he had his girlfriend over, and one of her friends, so we all went out to eat. The friend was relaly nice looking and we got along well. So after we get back and the girls leave, he asked what I thought, and I said I thought she was nice, and very attractive. So he says:
"Thatd be great if you two got together, then our girlfriends would already be friends. And after her STD clears up, You two could get it on too". : l
Well, there wasn't a second date.

Nehor, I hope you find your dream girl someday, before it's too late and you're too old and all the Mormon ladies left your age are all "sweet spirits". I won't knock your sense of loyalty and duty to marry a church girl, but it will be sad if it never ends up working out. Maybe you should just get it over with, hold your nose, and move back to Utah for a while.
Mormonism ceased being a compelling topic for me when I finally came to terms with its transformation from a personality cult into a combination of a real estate company, a SuperPac, and Westboro Baptist Church. - Kishkumen
