Back from Scotland
My first time in a country with an established church of sorts. It was a bit disconcerting seeing all sorts of public monuments dedicated to God, not to mention coins boldly proclaiming Her Majesty as Defender of the Faith. However, there was something oddly reassuring about it. Not that I find a great deal reassuring about the Church of Scotland, somewhat less so after attending a Sunday service oddly lacking in any -substantiation, cons or trans. But still.
