Baptism and Confirmation: Shadow of the Torturer

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Well well well ... looks like I was taught a "false theology" according to
this article.

In America, however, I am pretty sure we have done confirmation a bit after
communion for a good while.  This is one of those things I should have
known but didn't.  It's all moot as far as the procees Gene underwent,
however - he came to the church as an adult.
