Saw an older couple (late 80s or early 90s, probably) having a lunch date. As they finished, the husband acted as if he had something to say. When his wife leaned in, he pecked a kiss on her lips. She giggled and he looked up and winked at me. Best thing I've seen in a while.

One of the worst trends in American Christianity is that having a "personal" faith has now become having a private & unique faith. Personal faith means that Jesus' death and resurrection applies to me. Private & unique faith means you have invented your own religion a la carte.
