For though I was raised Protestant, my true religion is actually civility. Please note that I do not call my faith “politeness.” That’s part of it, yes, but I say civility because I believe that good manners are essential to the preservation of humanity – one’s own and others’ – but only to the extent that that civility is honest and reasonable, not merely the mindless handmaiden of propriety.
