Thanks so much, Pistoff. It helps to know this stuff when dealing with my parents.
Your last post about baptism really hit me ... it's one of my MAJOR beefs, that I received a lifelong sentence of banishment from my family because of making a decision that should be forced on no child. Sheesh, as soon as I was old enough to realize it was a sham, I left. It's so unfair to be forced to pay for that decision for the rest of my life. Thank you for your anger!!!
