Reply #33: Something like that happened to me the other day, too! [View All]

The office where I work got a new researcher, and when I was meeting her I was trying to make polite conversation, so I mentioned that I had been in Atlanta over spring break, which is when that courthouse shooting was happening. She was like "Oh, yeah, and that woman calmed that maniac down with "The Purpose-Driven Life"...my pastor was talking about that last Sunday at church, how we all need to bring Jesus into our lives...."

This is one of the most prestigious universities in the country, a liberal college smack in the middle of one of the bluest states around, and here this woman is talking about her pastor within, literally, two minutes of being introduced to me. I don't know why she would have felt like she needed to, but I was pretty weirded out by the whole thing.
