[QUOTE="cnath.rm, post: 688559, member: 1305"] [b]my 0.02gp[/b] Speaking as a life long Seventh-Day Adventist I don't take it personally, :) there are a decent amount of teachings, and for myself as someone mentioned above (sorry, I can't remember who) it's never really been much of a burden, what some would see as excessive rules I see more as senseible guidelines. and of course there are those congregations who are more liberal then others and some who are borderline on being rabid in their conservitism. (for myself I fall somewhere between, though on the conservitive side of the half way point) Now to bring this post back onto the original topic. I don't game from sundown on Friday to sundown on Saturday/Sabbath. It's a personal choice that's worked well for me so far in life. At one point I was a member of a LARP group and during the 3 years that I played with them I was a hour or two late 4-5 months out of the year as the games were on Sat. night and I didn't show up till after sundown. I never hid why I wasn't going to be there on time and (when asked) answered questions when people had them. As evidenced by allot of the comments I've seen on this thread, my experience was that most times people will respect your belief's, and you for holding to them.
