When I ask myself why I decided to write a blog on two topics that only a limited number of people seem even remotely interested in, I am tempted to give a thought provoking answer explaining how the satisfying of one's hunger and the yearning for metaphysical answers and truths are the two most essential components of human nature. But the truth is that I majored in Religious Studies, I enjoy crab cakes, and I apparently like to listen to myself think when it comes to these two topics. The first idea I had for a series of posts was checking out different churches, deciding what I liked and didn't like about them, and finding some good seafood nearby. Now that I have moved to the nation's capital for the year, I am determined to set out and explore the different faith-based communities in DC and locate the closest crab cakes, or other seafood brunch items, to them. So whether you're a lutheran or methodist, buddhist or Daoist, or just really bored, I hope you learn some valuable information from my explorations.
