The other day I was asked if I went looking for trouble, seeking out confrontations. I said, "You have noticed that Protestant has the word 'protest' in it, right?"

Kate is right. This is not about what we say. This is about who we are.

** "People who say there are two kinds of people and people who don't." Ahem.
