I have had too many of them land in my church (some only for a season) and spill it all out in my office...and the stories have literally made me sick of the level of hypocracy there was...especially among the youth...
One told of how many youth were breaking a particular rule and realized they were found out...so they deliberatly ratted out one kid and let him take the heat because they new if they could set one up the rest would not be noticed...this kid has major problems to this day and is not going to church...he just couldn't get over it...
99%? Not that I have seen...

Well. I conceded a bit in my post above...I think that you're right, that publicly everyone complied, but privately...or on vacation...was a completely different story.
