Did you feel special?

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).
Embarrassed
Puzzled
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.
Considered it as a joke
