On a recent trip across the country, while glancing out the window I was rewarded with a wonderful view as we passed over the Mahong River that spreads across the Ohio and Pennsylvania border. I wistfully thought of my Quaker ancestors who settled in this fertile part of our great country. They planted their fields, raised their families, and became part of this great experiment in Democracy we call America.
As I looked closer, I could almost see them clinging to their guns and religion…
