A Funny Result

Jews and Mormons have to explain to the flock how their ideas are different from those of the majority. Atheists and agnostics too, in their questioning and even rejecting, have probably devoted more thought to religion, or more accurately, religions

I caught myself at the last second on the Jewish Sabbath question. Nearly said Saturday, but then remembered Friday at sundown. Saturday is Temple.

Read up on The Great Awakenings. The second was actually more interesting than the first. Fundamentalists in the US know surprisingly little about their own sects. I'm always a little thrilled that I know more than they do. My grandmother and I used to talk about it when I was a kid. She said the third Great Awakening was at the turn of the last century. I agreed with her.
