Ugh. Just got back from Baccalaureate. It's an optional graduation thing... Unless you're in music. Then you have to go. Despite the music director's comment ("This is not a religious service" -- HA!), it was basically like being in church. Because as soon as someone prays and closes it with "In the name of our Savior, Jesus," not only is it religious... It's Christian.

I guess I'd have been better if it represented other religions as well... At least there would have been a sense of diversity and representation. But this is a small Midwestern town, so that idea is out of the running. So, yeah... I stared in front of me as everyone else bowed their heads in prayer, and I felt pretty uncomfortable. Booyah. Or should I say hallelujah?
