I typed this little sign and put it on the inside of the window in my front door,then I watched through the slats when the Mormon missionaries came to my door. Observing them read it was priceless. One stepped off the porch and went back and read it again. Lots and lots of discussion.
NOTICE:
I am under no obligation to:
avoid all loud laughter,
lightmindedness,
evil speaking of the lords anointed
or any other impure or unholy practice
Enter at you own risk

For those that have been to the temple, this statement is from The Law of the Gospel, one of the temple covenants. As the temple is so sacred it is not to be discussed, seeing this statement on a door can be quite a shock. And humorous to observe the reader.
Law of the Gospel: We are required to give unto you the Law of the Gospel as contained in the Holy Scriptures; to give unto you also a charge to avoid all lightmindedness, loud laughter, evil speaking of the Lord's anointed, the taking of the name of God in vain, and every other unholy and impure practice, and to cause you to receive these by covenant.
