Conversion on the Bike Path <\/b><\/p>\n
In India, many people consider cows to be sacred. In Vermont, they worship bicycles. <\/p>\n
How else to explain this exchange between Dean and ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos last Sunday, after Dean was asked if he was raised Roman Catholic.<\/p>\n
“No, raised Episcopalian, and I ended up as a Congregationalist,” Dean said.<\/p>\n
Why did he become a Congregationalist?<\/p>\n
“Because I had a big fight with a local Episcopal church about 25 years ago over the bike path. . . . We were trying to get the bike path built. They had control of a mile and a half of railroad bed, and they decided they would pursue a property right suit to refuse to allow the bike path to be developed.” I didn’t realize that the narrow door Jesus asked us to strive for was accessed via a bike path. Maybe that is why the door is narrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Conversion on the Bike Path In India, many people consider cows to be sacred.
