Of course I do. I was one of the two young pioneers in the congregation up until just November; my best friend was the other young pioneer. I was the congregation’s infallible baby girl. Do I want to go back? Hellll no! Friends and family can give you just as much a since of belonging. And it’s nice they show this thing called unconditional love. Gives you that nice warm fuzzy feeling inside.

That’s a great question Wonderer. I don’t really feel like ether kept me in too long seeing as how I’m only 18 and was just dfed Thursday. But without the support of my three older (dfed) siblings and a good friend at work the fear of dieing would have had greater control of me. I mean I think that we are all smarter than to believe that if there is a God we would be displeasing him by simply not fallowing the completely irrational rules of the organization. Pleasing God and an organized religion should have no connection. They keep them in with fear… well the few they are keeping in.
