21. Totally understand and not in the least offended

I never once heard anything political when I went as a kid. I quit going in 11th grade to my dads chagrin but he did not make me go.

Funny story; it was a Sunday School teacher that made me stop going. He was telling us the normal Baptist boilerplate that the wine Jesus drank, and created was not really wine but grape juice. At this point I was already studying the sciences really seriously knowing I would go into the field in college. So I told him that before refrigeration and pasteurization all grape juice would quickly turn to wine. In a matter of days. He shut me down then talked to my father about my transgression!! Dad knew I was right but asked me if I could sit quietly each week and not disagree with the teacher. I told him I doubted I could sit there and be lied to. So he was fine with me sitting it out.

Yeah, I was a smart assed 16 year old!

I glad you found a church home that works for you.

Have a good day and stay safe.
