Used to live across the street from a Freewill Baptist Church.
Always curious about other beings mindsets, went and attended a service.
Walked through the main door and felt the trope of crickets chirping. No one greeted me, said hello, welcome, nothing. I was stared at but never acknowledged.
The service was strictly talking. No hyms or singing.
The sermon told me they are creationists that believe "Singing and dancing lead to temptation".
Point is their "educational materials" were horrifying. Mostly just fear mongering and advising self segregation from reality.
How full was the church?
Chapel was about a third full. 10 pews on each side, with a maximum of 15 butts per pew...
20x15-66%=
100ish in attendance...
didn't take a census, so I'm relying on a 17 year old memory.
Edit: bad math
You called other people beings and that feels odd to me for some reason.
It's just an acknowledgement that I'm not the only being in the universe who has feelings and thoughts.
