Well, I'm serious about it as a topic. I am also serious about it in the way I thought about it when I wrote it, although I don't know how it came across. For instance, we already do this in a sense that 1,2,3rd initiations are rites of passage. I think adding a few like marriages, going to school for the first time, graduating from any school, hey, even getting a driver's license could all be an excuse for a party where devotees get together and build social bonds.
