I haven't even been baptized.
Which, even in the Netherlands, is a bit rare.

Yes. And there's another option: to be coveted by the neighbor's wife. Commandment only says "do not covet your neighbor's wife", so I guess it's OK for a woman to covet her neighbor. I think a man could be highly "covetable" without sinning. In fact, I could be "coveted" by the entire neighborhood.

Huh, that picture was taken in 1925, so you want to be coveted by supercentenarian women??

I haven't been baptized or confirmed, I don't see those as being necessary, ESPECIALLY not confirmation. But I guess that boils down to me not believing in infant baptism.
