Mormon Missions @ Senadin

There's a thin fine line between a door-to-door salesman and a door-to-door handsome couple preaching about Jesus in South Americas...
I've started to see some Latter Day Saints, or fondly called Mormon, missionaries in action mid this semester in Senadin. The Miri-variant are good looking males just like in other regions, clad in their trademark white shirt, dark pants and black ties while walking house to house bringing good words from the Book of Mormon.

There are some young female students in Senadin who would not mind these missionaries, but I can find them to be a bit too invasive and annoying. So to politely counter them you can fight holy scriptures with holy scriptures (and facts!);

1. Alma 7:10 says Jesus was born to Mary in Jerusalem. Jesus was born in Bethlehem not Jerusalem as mentioned in Matthew 2:1. Although they will say it's to generalize the region as the two places are not far apart, you can argue again saying "bro, it's like saying I'm born in Kuala Lumpur when in fact I'm born in Sibu. Yes they are in the same Malaysian region, but those two are totally different places."

2. Ether 2:3 says honey was introduced in 2000 BC. Look, I've been playing too much middle-age games especially the unbiased and historically correct Medieval Total War II, (I think) and babe honey was introduced in the 15th century or 1400s AD, not 2000 BC.

Cheerios~
