The rules are enforced by the police and the government. #innocentuntilprovenguilty #followtherules]]> 2017-10-02 18:02:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailgar1801/2cqg3q5ye1by/wish/193140994 taylermcc6457 https://padlet.com/abigailgar1801/2cqg3q5ye1by/wish/193146403 America provides its citizens with the ability to practice whatever they want.

If a person goes against the values or vows of the church they face excommunication and shunning. While the consequences of going against the church are extreme after baptism, the punishment is not the same if a person decides to leave the church before baptism. #adultdecisions #baptism ]]> 2017-10-02 18:16:03 UTC https://padlet.com/abigailgar1801/2cqg3q5ye1by/wish/193149162
