The author's mom was in my high school class, and is one of the most deeply kind and principled people I've known. This story of a journey in faith is so rewarding to read, and exemplifies what (I think) Jesus would want us to do. The last paragraph made me cry.

How did my dad go from hating homosexuality to imploding his church by embracing me? His journal entries show how he changed his mind.

Amazon may be convenient, but it can’t replace the magic of a rainy day in a cosy bookstore—the smell of old pages, fresh coffee, and shelves full of new adventures waiting to be found.

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all."

Exactly. Vaccines are not about "freedom of choice." Vaccines are about public health.
Someone’s reproductive health choices have zero direct impact on me. Someone’s decision to not be vaccinated against transmissible disease could kill me.
I didn’t think this could worse but then Jared Polis compared vaccine choice to reproductive rights.
