I'm not a member, but I've learned a lot about the church and have some good friends that are members. I had met with a lot of missionaries, but stopped a couple years ago. Recently I visited temple square and one of the missionaries asked if she could call me. I explained that the church in my area wasn't really setup for someone like me and that I didn't feel comfortable going there and the word "baptism" makes me cringe. That being said, I told her she could call to teach me more about the doctrine, history, culture, etc. Instead of being interested in teaching me, she and her companion seemed extremely focused on getting me to follow these commitments and didn't seem that interested in my thoughts or questions other than if I agreed to commit to do or to say I believed whatever they wanted that day. In the next lesson I tried asking about questions I had from the previous one and tried steering the conversation to things about the church I wanted to learn about, but they had this laser like focus on their lessons and commitments. So after a few lessons where they kept pushing the importance of going to church they said something like "let us know how church goes and we'll be happy to teach you again". Obviously that was the last I heard from them. After that experience, I was just curious if missionaries are teaching to check investigator commitments off a list or if they're actually supposed to teach people that are interested about the church even if the investigator does not seem to be interested in converting?
