Good point, UU Now! Why do they care about who's baptized in the household? Oh, that's right. Unbelieving mates and undecided kids who should've been dunked will die, so that's less emergency supplies needed.

Thanks for the feedback. jwfacts, that sounds right. I remember as a kid, hearing from the platform how many thousands in the US were df'd each year. Of course, they were telling us like it was a warning but I used to wonder what the total was every year. And that wasn't counting those that left willingly...

Do you find that most of the ones you grew up with left? I looked around while still active and saw numbers dwindling from my generation. I pioneered while in late teens/early twenties and several from my class that were friends of mine left years ago. I run into people now and discover they too have stopped. What about you guys?

Did you have any "well kept secrets" that the congregation never knew of?
by JH inwhen you gather with the same people for decades, they get to know you inside out.
they know where you work, have a good idea how much money you earn, know if you have sex or not, know your personal tastes, know where you go on vacations and so on..... were there things you were able to keep them from knowing?.

Well, the first time I went to the Shakey Nuts, my friend from work to me. It was a birthday surprise. And after that I found it was a fun way to be wild for the night, blow off steam. But it would be funny sitting at the meeting and a part of the show would replay in my head. I just smiled to myself. People probably thought, "oh, she's so happy to be here."
