I remember attending the memorial service for a college friend. He regularly mocked and otherwise stayed clear of organized religion of any kind. That didn’t stop his evangelical preacher/brother in law from totally rewriting history. All of us who knew him knew they were rewriting history and Brian would have hated it.
I'm told this happens often in families with an evangelical or otherwise fundamentalist contingent. Like, whenever I share these stories, I'm amazed at how many people have had a similar experience. Neither my parents or grandparents were religious so I've always been a layer or two removed but it's wild.
