I got introduced to gaming at the Baptist Student Union (which 
shared a building with the Tulsa Baptist Convention HQ).  
Occasionally preachers would wander over from the TBC side to 
schmooze with the Younger Generation, and we'd have to explain 
what the heck we were doing.  (Traveller, mostly Snapshot.)  We 
elected not to play D&D there, though, to be on the safe side, 
being as how most of the preachers wandered back out somewhat 
confused as it was...
