Congrats on your move. I’m in a small town in TN and it’s like living in another time in history. I went back to college and my math professor gave all of us a homemade loaf of bread with a Bible verse enclosed with each loaf on the last day of class. We occasionally have gospel singing’s at the local Wal-Mart and still pray at high school ballgames. I’m not posting exactly where I live because I know liberal trolls would love to give us grief but I can tell you that the local residents won’t put up with it.
When we moved here, I was checking out at Food City the first time and signing up for their bonus card. In line, the cashier and two ladies behind me all invited me to their respective churches. In CA, the cashier would’ve been let go. It definitely is another world — and we LOVE it!
Yes, small towns are remaining exceedingly conservative, thankfully. But from what I’ve been hearing, Nashville is becoming the San Francisco of the state. And the enclaves ruled by universities are almost no different from Marxist communities of the NE.
