TAW membership: Cradle, Convert, and Otherwise

[authiodionitist]

Take the poll and comment!

[Greg the byzantine]

Cradle. Baptised and Chrismated Orthodox as an infant. Still attending the parish I was baptised in.

[Dust and Ashes]

Aging convert here.

[prodromos]

Aging, though young at heart convert ;)

[skoi]

Otherwise disposed- because we're not official yet, though we know the Orthodox Church is where we're going.

[eoe]

AGING!>?!?! MY FOOT! I AM ONLY 31!!!!!:doh:

[Petronius]

Baptized Orthodox as an infant. That was my fate and never thought it had to be changed. Since I met you here, I am convinced it was the best fate.

[Breaking Babylon]

I voted #2, although I can't say I'm aging. I've only been a catechumen for a month or so and I've still got a long time ahead of me before baptism and chrismation.

[Tsarina]

Hmm.. i didn't vote, but i'll just say that i'm a convert.

[Paisley]

aging, yes - convert, yes - but still a Catechumen... :D

[nutroll]

I was baptized Orthodox as an infant. During my early teen years, after my parents' divorce, my mother decided to take me to her Presbyterian church, a period which I refer to as the Presbyterian exile. As soon as I felt that I could say where I wanted to attend church, I went back to the Orthodox Church.

[kamikat]

I voted otherwise, as I haven't been chrismated yet. Born and raised Roman Catholic.

[The Prokeimenon!]

I'm a convert. And if the rapidly expanding bald spot is any indication, then I am aging as well.

Hey. We're the same age! But no, it's not aging, though if you have two small children at 31 you'll often feel aged.

I'm a convert too. I was Chrismated about 5 years ago now after having been raised Protestant.

Hmmmm...are you dead or caught in a stasis field? I mean, if you're not aging, you must be one of the two. :P

Heck, I aged 30 seconds while writing this post.

[Breaking Babylon]

LOL. Okay, I'm aging. I just didn't want anyone to give me the whole "How's that recent teenager catechumen going to come in here and say he's an aging seasoned convert, IS OUTRAGE!"

[Matrona]

I was a teenage convert, too. I may be aging, but I'm not old yeeeeeeeet. :( :D

[Chacci]

Aging Convert.

Mature as a 15 year old...ask my wife! :)

[SaulSkenopoios]

I am a catechumen, moving from the Roman Catholic Church.

[Spyridon]

Raised Baptist, journeyed through Calvinism, Presbyterianism, and Lutheranism to be Chrismated into the Orthodox Church with my family on December 19, 2004.

[Mary of Bethany]

Converted at age 47, so I had no excuse not to vote #2. ;)
