awkward situation...

So today is Sunday and this morning I had to visit a religious gathering that was different than mine for my religion class. I will not go into the specific religion that i attended out of respect but I will say that it was an interesting, and very awkward experience. Since birth, I have been raised Baptist and now attend a evangelical church in Fort Wayne called Blackhawk.
In this religion I visited, many of the beliefs were much different from my own. I was also uncomfortable because because me and the friends I was attending this place were kind of alienated. It is not that we were treated badly just differently and it sometimes felt as if we were being interrogated on why we were there and whether we would want to attend full time.
After this unideal experience, I am to happy to have at least obtained concrete information straight from the source. I am looking on the bright side of things though because I know that it will be very easy to write a paper on this event. This event will also make appreciate my home church that much more next Sunday.
