To be honest, I'm not a member. I just accompanied a close friend to a weekend retreat hosted by this church, which frankly strikes me as very cliquish. I looked forward to it but once there I felt like an outsider and I was treated as an outsider except of course for my friend. Then we were separated by some silly game that required me to sit at a table with complete strangers. The rules were to sit with this group at all times except for meals. Only at those times could I be with my friend. One of the activities was literally making paper dolls out of magazines, and I found myself wondering if I had been somehow transported back to the vacation bible school we went to as children. After trying to interact with these people, I gave up. The food was good; the accommodations were good; but I never spent a more miserable weekend in my life. This strange church with the strange building can keep itself to itself. I won't be back. read more
