Warren county has a mixed lot, but religious influence is strong here. I live about 1000 feet from my parents church (catholic), a Presbyterian (sp?) church a stone's throw from that, there is a Baptist church about half a mile from there, and no more then a mile from that is a methodist church. We also have the blue army shrine, and a buddhist temple (yeah im cunfused about that too). All this in a town of only 12000, and I know I'm forgeting a few churches.

The new generation seems a bit more promissing, but there are a lot of evangical teenagers always trying to convert the masses.

Isn't it funny how God woks at the same speed as social revolutions and medicine?
