Thanks so much also to the kind reader who wrote:

My son is Jewish-Christian. He was Bar Mitzvah’d at 13 and is being confirmed at 14. But he has also been exposed to all the world’s religions and lives in a house filled with images from all faiths. He looks at Jesus, the Goddesses, and God as friends. He has never really questioned the presence of God in his life or assigned God to one religion. (Although I certainly understand young Chattering’s concerns, and bless him for sharing them with you!) Regardless, or perhaps because of his exposure to spirituality, my son seems to most truly connect to the divine through sports. And we have encouraged him to be free to pick his own religion of preference. That would be baseball. He calls his personal practice “sportuality.”
