An observation as to what has been happening to our classic American culture. It's not gone completely -- yet.
From the article:
Townhall
It never was a part of my family's culture, growing up. We joined, at most, a local church, and in their latter years my parents didn't even do that.
I'm a life member of the VFW, but I joined while stationed in Germany and had no church outside of Sunday morning, so I had social time to do VFW stuff. I don't think I've been in a VFW post since then.
I only know one family that is part of a social organization, Rotary. I'm glad they, and anyone else who does similar, find enjoyment and meaning in it.
Maybe, if God grants me anything like retirement, I can expand time spent in both church and VFW activities.
