Christmas in Australia, anyone?
It's pretty laid back...

That sounds a lot like what we have in Christians Churches in the Bible Belt. Where were you raised, if you don't mind me asking?


Middle of nowhere, central Ohio. Right on the line between cows and corn country and hundreds of square miles of woods. My dad's family is all from the W Va foothills and my mom's from scary deep south Mississippi plantation country.


Southerners can be very religious.


I'm a bit of an anomaly here in the Pacific Northwest being a church goer. Thankfully, no one that I see on Sundays buys into Fox's crap about a war on Christmas.

Hm I think you have a lot of churches up there so I am guessing lots of people attend them. Maybe they aren't so fanatical as they are in the deep south. Millennials can take things to whole other level.


To be sure, I am exaggerating a bit about there not being many churches in the Pacific Northwest :lol:. But you're right, the religious right is not the most popular sort of religion here.
