I was quite proud of myself for my new found intellectuality, and was telling the pastor how I was improving myself. Of course I was naive and thought he would approve and give me kudos. To the contrary he started talking about faith. He was anti-intellectual. He poo-pooed my new sense of self worth. I got so angry. I got up to hit him. Chris grabbed me and held me back.

In fact it was the last time I had to do with any kind of church.
