May. 20th, 2019 02:44 pm Yesterday (Sunday) we went to my nephew's wedding. I characterized our trip as "going to Falwell land". (being not far from Lynchburg).
I did not realize how thoroughly apt that statement was.
My nephew and his wife are both recent graduates of Liberty University. I found that to be rather disturbing, given the actual mission Liberty [sic] University has been working to.
The service was somewhat uncomfortable. The pastor spoke at considerable length before we got to the vows. You might call it a full-fledged sermon. You might be right. He made sure to trot out the claim the the Biblical definition of marriage is one man and one woman. It was plain that the vision of marriage he was pushing was needlessly asymmetrical in responsibilities and authority.
I did behave myself. But there was discussion in the car on the way home.
