I should seriously try this!!!

Also, in my experience, even though I "knew" how we were supposed to treat people that "left the church" when I was there, I only knew how I treated people. I had no clue how others did it, and I certainly had no clue what it felt like either!! Some politely shun, like they are sorry they have to do it because they really love me and wish they could talk to me and find out how I am doing. Some act like they hope I burn in hell. Hey, maybe they think THEY will burn in hell if they act nice to me, thus why they "react like a vampire to a cross" as Randy quoted.
