Does anyone ever actually get converted by a door knocking missionary?

  It's not for the benefit of the potential convertees, it's for the benefit of the ones doing the converting.

    Yes. The inevitable rejection is the point. It reinforces the otherness of the outside world, creating more separation from non-believers and stronger connection and devotion to the cult.

  Yes. I'm no longer a Mormon, but I baptized around a dozen people on my mission and they were all found from knocking on doors. But this was also thirty years ago, before the internet was a thing for most people.
