VERSION|0.5.1|NAME|Stonyground|DATE|1362332988|CONTENT|My family were Methodists but I was baptised by the CofE. As far as I know, this was because at the time in the late fifties, non-conformist baptisms were not allowed or had no legal standing or something. The CofE claim that they don&#039;t use baptismal records in order to artificially inflate their perceived membership. Although the NSS has, in the past, caught them out doing just that, as a general rule it appears that they don&#039;t. Were I to discover that they were using my name to make claims about the size of their membership, I would be on them like a shot.  |EMAIL|elizabeth@iww1967.wanadoo.co.uk|IP-ADDRESS|95.150.29.96|MODERATIONFLAG|
