Everytime I go near a church, especially a local one, I have a compulsive urge to scan all the gravestones.

Tracy when he pinched him, did he give him a painful imputation???? Lyla, better to laugh than cry lol. My hubby is a Methodist lay preacher and one day he was coming down out of the very tiny pulpit in one of our smaller churches when he slipped and fell all the way down. Good job I wasn't there, I would have pmsl!!!

I have a distressing affliction everytime I go to a church. I always seem to get an uncontrollable fit of the giggles.

Left under dishonourable circumstances Left under painful imputations (must look that one up!) Died peacefully after deep afflictions Died peacefully in Christ after distressing affliction Expelled for immoral conduct Suspended for misconduct Not hilarious I admit, but maybe worth a little giggle!

Like many of you, I've had a real good laugh at the Most Amusing Cause of Death thread and thought you might like this. I was doing some research today on my g/g/grandfather who was a Baptist preacher and I came across a website for what seems a very nice Baptist church in Suffolk. They have lots of old records published online, including membership records. I hope you might find some of these reasons for leaving the church amusing! Mandy :))
