Why does this photo of EM and his progeny make me think of "Children of the Corn"?

Came home from church and wrote for 2.5 hours straight. And not even about politics. Today's thesis: when you convert to a church, you also convert to a culture. I am 100% at home in the church, considerably less in the culture. Doing all the right things but adrift. Still, no regrets. ❤️

Fellowship Sunday:
The day when the church puts out unhealthy snacks so that people can sit at tables and talk to people they already know.

These are tough events for me. It's a challenge to be an introvert in church. 😥

How ironic that in three days, it will be the 293rd birthday of the man who expressed grave discomfort -- he called it "pain" -- at the suggestion that he should be crowned the king of America and warned that for America to be ruled by a king would be a "calamity."
