FWIW and as a disclaimer: My kids were involved in the thing that Carp describes. My daughter says that "over 200 were baptized..." I'm certain that the numbers will be some what flexible. She's really upbeat on what went on, but then again, there are many things that are wisely kept from our children.

What has me a little conflicted is the question of whether it is acceptable to compromise our dignity and our principals, and our scruples in order for just one person to be "saved" at least from a destructive lifestyle?
