I am confirmed (C of E) For some strange reason I thought I should take on the vows my godparents took on my behalf when I was christened It now means that if I sin I am only responsible to myself, and am not causing grief to those kind souls that stood up as godparents when I was a babe Strange reason I know, but then some would say I am a strange person Dee ;-)))))
