That's good to hear.
I wasn't intentionally putting drupal down.  I was just explaining how I got 
into a bad situation with drupal.  Instead of trying to get out of it, we just 
decided to move to WordPress.  But a big factor in that decision was the lack of 
  use of the drupal features.  Our church community just didn't take to it.  I'm 
sure others will have a different experience.
