The Children of Those Who Scorn Me

Yesterday at AUUF the guest speaker was Leaf Seligman, an American UU minister currently serving the UU fellowship in London, Ontario.

London happens to be the city where my mother attended teacher's college. For my mother, and most Christians, UUs are (gasp!) heretics. Now this daughter of a traditional Christian woman from Ontario finds herself in Anchorage, Alaska, listening to a genuine, London-living heretic. And of course she herself became a heretic quite some time ago.

Gives me a new perspective on the baby boom happening in right-wing circles. Maybe, despite all the homeschooling and Disney-boycotting, their minds will survive.
