2. Religious chauvinism! What a descriptive turn of phrase!

Back in the "Olde Days" (well, more than at least a half century or so ago) people were less rude about their faith groupings, at least in public. Each group quite naturally thought theirs was the preferred one, but no one got shirty about it or felt the need to wave pom-poms and scream about their choice like they were at the Superbowl!

I hope we can emulate that kind of vibe here...I imagine there's something we all can learn from most religions, certainly from the ones that have more than a few adherents, anyway.
