Right, please tell me. Is this just a meme thing or do people actually knock on other people's doors to try to convert them to their religion?

And does this only happen, bizarrely, in the country with the highest number of gun-owning cowards?

It just seems such an odd combination

Jehovas witnesses knocking on doors is an absolutely known thing in Germany.

And in Sweden.

Fun fact, their meeting places, "Kingdom hall"s are translated "Rikets Sal". On more than one occasion the letters in their signs have been rearranged over night to "skitarsle", roughly "poopybutt" :D
