    Did you feel special?

    I did when I got baptized at 9 years of age and became an "ordained minister".

    No matter how hard I scrub, I still feel dirty from that.

    Hey, at least I could park at hospital areas marked "Clergy"....(not at 9 though).

    I took advantage of the hospital parking as well (when I was an elder) Yeah, it is pretty goofy.

    9 year old ministers, now that's silly!

    And if you're in the company of your mom at a bible study, she should not say the prayers, the baptized brother should, the little minister.

    I'm dissapointed that I got snookered and maybe I helped snooker some others.

    I beleived for a minute, fortunately they gave me an expiration date of 1976.

    I never felt like an ordained minister, even though technically I was. This was just to get me "accountable" for everyone in the territory, so I could be responsible if anyone in the territory got destroyed.

    That being the case, I might as well have stayed out of the cancer altogether.
