Kade nods a couple of times, slowly, fitting the pieces together, trying to think about what he wants out of this conversation. He leans against the table. "I grew up in the church, you know," he says. "Different church. Same God. My neck of the woods, you accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior and get baptized and keep on believing and following the Bible, on paper? You're ostensibly golden. Now, in practice... In practice, it gets a little hairy. People have opinions they dress up as truths, and if you happen to have a different opinion... well then, you're acting against truth; that must mean you aren't a very good Christian." He shakes his head, as slow as his nods. "That how things were in the church you grew up with?"
