This one however is pretty fair to the truth while not overly trying to degrade the religion.
Literally the best 4 hour religion class I've ever taken.

I did go through thier 6 step program a few years back. Moreso to learn about their faith. Invited them into my home over the summer back in 2000. Interesting part came when they told me i could baptise my father who died 3 months earlier. It was the first time in my life that i wanted to toss a few people out the door on thier ear
I risisted the temptation and allowed them to continue. The next week they brought in the heavy weights in an effort to get me to join the church. Got some elder so pissed off at me that he was screaming - all because i challenged some of thier doctrine. He left in a huff
Overall it was a interesting learning experience. Got invited to a few homes for dinner and met some nice people. In the end i told them thanks but no thanks.
