Well, the slant is presented...

Maybe Carp was looking for that response and set up this story to reflect some kind of irony in order to start discussion...

I remember a wise old fella said that God should be glorified rather than him...so, he didn't have religious symbols on his vehicle...

It is just terrible disgusting for some folks to always assume the worst of people...particularly Apostolics and assume that a 'weird look" means anything else that is evil OTHER than being a little confused as to why someone is doing what they are doing. It really does get frustrating and sickening after a while. Im not joking. I get tired of seeing that stuff from people here that call them brother and sisters on the one hand and then speak evil of them on the other

Sorry, but I don't think the worst of people. I read the post in question and gave my opinion.

I'm sorry if you felt it was judgmental...I do my level best to not fall into that.

My intent was not to speak evil, rather to point out that their countenance appeared to change once they beheld his wife.
