That was because of Mormonism itself!
Besides, the Bible knows NOTHING of proselyting other than what Jesus told the Pharisees about their legalistic proselytizing: 15 Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when you have succeeded, you make them twice as much a child of hell as you are. (Matt. 23:15)
True discipleship resulting in true followers of Jesus Christ is sourced in the Holy Spirit operating both directly and indirectly through others: ...no one can say, Jesus is Lord, except by the Holy Spirit. (1 Cor. 12:3)
At least they had plenty of croissants.
Just as likely it was because he was in France where participation in Christan religions is almost non existent and the the religion that has the most activity is Islam.
Thank God. Imagine being French and being told that you can’t drink or smoke anymore or even eat your mom’s home cooking again, because of the alcohol in the food. Of course they didn’t convert anybody.
That’s par for the course Mittens because if it weren’t for the media you’d be polling single digits. You aren’t converting anyone.
prolly learned lots of French swear words though
5 months? Every Mormon kid I’ve ever known goes on a two year mission. Why was Romney’s so short?
Mitt is unable to develop followers except by buying them.
“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.”
Talk about your rejections as a missionary knocking on door, after door, after door in a hostile environment, Scarborough asked.

Merry Christmas
His Mormon mission was where he learned to lie through his teeth.
I’m glad the French didn’t fall for it.
In the Mormon town we were living, two young men were sent on missions, one murdered another young man with a gun,in front of friends, the second was caught breaking into the explosives store shed belonging to the forest service.
They went on missions to avoid being sent to prison.
BS.
That is mathematically improbable.
If they knocked on some 200 doors a day or even a mere 50 doors a day, for 5 months, they would have produced at least a 1% closing ratio.
Let’s assume only 50 doors a day:
6 days a week x 50 doors a day = 350 doors.
Of 350 they can assume a 10% success rate of open doors turning suspects into prospects. They could have opened 35 doors a week and converted 1/3 of a % of opened doors.
He would have converted at least 1 person per month and that would be seen as success.
If, on the other hand they were able to knock on some 150 per day they would have had 15 doors opened per day or 90 per week.
That would have resulted in .9 conversions per week or 3 per month.
Total baloney that he was that horrible of a salesman and didn’t convert a single person for 5 months.
So Mittens has FAILED in EVERTHING that he has done.
How about in the OTHER months??
He WAS there a YEAR or more; right??
I knew a LDS family about 38 years ago who had a son in the mission field. He was not sent to convert people, he was sent to counsel missionaries who were suicidal due to the constant failures to convert people.
“Besides, the Bible knows NOTHING of proselyting other than what Jesus told the Pharisees about their legalistic proselytizing...”
Huh??? What???
Didn’t Jesus say something to the Apostles about going into all nations to teach, baptizing in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit?
