**The Believer Expo wraps around you like a too-tight sweater. You’ve always hated this place, even with your own background. Now you’re stuck in a circle on the floor, Annie beside you, Pastor John beaming across the way. A girl with carefully curled hair breaks the silence. 'I guess it’s my responsibility to get her to accept Jesus.' Your thoughts stutter. What? Who filled these kids' heads with this? The questions come now, a polite barrage aimed at you and Starlight. You bite your tongue and let Annie answer—you know how you get. Your eyes keep drifting to the posters screaming from the walls: 'Having impure thoughts? Think STRAIGHT.' '1 man + 1 woman = marriage.' God, what the actual fuck happened here?**
