I read somewhere that someone twisted a tonsil in church while singing a hymn and had to leave quickly to visit a throat specialist,

I went to a C of E school and we used to have our Harvest Festival service in the church. I was late getting there and the door was closed. I knew that I had to get in because I was supposed to be reading the lesson. It didn't occur to me that I could just walk in - so I knocked on the door very loudly! It must have echoed round that church like thunder. The headmaster was laughing like a drain when he let me in - must have given them a fright though! Magsx

Lost membership by indifference! It's great and I'm sure is the reason my brother stopped going to church. lol

Dont know if this is the same thing, but I was reading about the Pole Lane Chapel in Darwen Lancs, which was a breakaway group from, I think, Upper Darwen Chapel. The reason they broke away from the Upper Chapel was because the Curate there was suspected of being, wait for it, wait for it...A UNITARIAN! (I dont even know what that is, so it cant really be anything very naughty)
