Stephen Colbert thinks Quaker Meetings are like city buses

"I used to drive a school bus and I remember how my hair went grey and wrinkles grew. So I trust its not one of those buses. The ones I went on in Latin America also carried chickens and goats along with people, now wouldnt that make for interesting…"

Profile Information

About Me: I have farmed, ranched and logged since leaving school, many many moons ago. I am what is termed as an Isolated Friend and attend Meeting when ranching and fuel tank allows. I am Christ centered with family ties to Quakers right back to Herefordshire England in 1670.

Thank you for your thoughtful reply. It is a comfort to hear from someone who is called to something similar... I know what you mean by it being funny to live out your faith by doing what you love. I struggle with the concept, knowing that the bible gives examples of so much more obvious and straightforward ways to live out His will. I hope that I will someday come to peace with that.

If I am ever in BC I may seek you out to see if I can visit your ranch, and maybe take a class.

I'm a convinced Conservative Friend in VT, U.S. I'm only 20 and studying dairy management in college, and was delighted to see someone who is both a rancher and a conservative quaker. Especially with sheep! I feel a great affinity for those woolly creatures. Anyway, I just wanted to message you because I'm curious about how your faith ties in with your work, if you feel comfortable to answer. Thank you and God bless,

-Meg
