I went to an Episcopal Church service this morning. It was just great. It was an old stone church with a high ceiling, stained glass windows, and an enormous pipe organ. This was where my grandparents and two aunts on my father's side were married.
I don't belong to any exclusive religions. "Belong" even carries the wrong connotations.
In a few months, I am scheduled to go to another country, a country with a long non-Christian history. I will be doing something else entirely then.
There were a lot of people there, they were all dressed sharp, and they looked great!
My favorite thing from this morning was a sign on the wall that said, "Quell gossip." Hear hear!
Christians are lovely. I should avoid the jerks.
If anyone asks about my beliefs, in order not to create a spectacle or be the center of attention, I will say something like, "It's complicated." If someone asks again, perhaps I will make an allusion to my beliefs. If they press me, I will tell them plainly and simply.
