Only reason we stayed in that church as long as we did, other than sheer inertia and fear of the unknown . . . .

Heh. Now we're talking something I can understand. :)

I understand hops, barley, malt and ethanol. And also NFL football...(not that scoreless kind they play in Europe; One-Nil and all that; tiebreakers; penalty flops, killing your mate for a team...ugh!).

Oh, yeah, it's not easy to leave a denomination when you're at least sixth-generation Episcopalian. My gggg grandfather John Bale was baptized in 1795 at St. Giles Cripplegate, the church where Cromwell was married and John Milton is buried. Just north of the NW corner of the old Roman city wall in the City of London.

Not to mention that my husband was raised Methodist and my mom Presbyterian.
