Tuesday

Quality Terminal Time

It certainly feels good to travel again…delays and all. Delta cancelled my flight from Atlanta to Detroit, so now I have to spend a few hours in the Atlanta airport. But, that’s alright…I can watch the Wings game I thought I would miss.

According to a survey released Tuesday by the Pew Research Center, this group — commonly known as the “nones” — now constitutes 29% of American adults. That’s up from 23% in 2016 and 19% in 2011.

“If the unaffiliated were a religion, they’d be the largest religious group in the United States,” said Elizabeth Drescher, an adjunct professor at Santa Clara University who wrote a book about the spiritual lives of the nones.

The nones are growing, thankfully.

I arrived at the Charleston airport a few hours before my flight today, which means I listened to A few hours of Christmas music while watching planes takeoff and land, between emails and other work. It was surprisingly not annoying.
