A success story from a friend and reader. Used with permission, names have been changed. Hello Karen, I have a nice story to share with you about my cousin. Susan and I have been close since we were kids. But our relationship became strained as I changed over recent years. Susan is a hardcore Bible Christian, which did not pose a real problem for us until I became a liberal Quaker. My political inclinations have become increasingly liberal as I have grown older too. But still we got along well until she fell into Trump's orbit. The man is one step short of Christ in her book. Her overt adulation of this man is very distasteful to me. I had to challenge her on some occasions when she parroted his hateful rhetoric. This winter, she came to visit for a few days and I was so relieved when she left. There were no great arguments because I had insisted that we not discuss anything political during our visit. But the air was very tense and we each sensed the other's—anger is too strong a word—but something like that.
