...friends to turn off the church's air conditioning system (successfully, but this was an extremely bad idea). My teachers, faced with a classroom of people like me, needed to reach the lowest common denominator. We watched Rambo, ate many donuts and played a lot of run-around-and-shriek games. If there was a message in there, I usually missed it--I learned Christianity as well as you learn social theory from watching Jerry Springer...
