Found on the letters page of A Prairie Home Companion
Have you ever had a weird character trait, so weird that you were certain you were the only one in the world, and then found out it was a well-known quirk or even a syndrome?
Browsing the web, I came across A Prairie Home Companion Post to the Host:
Dear Host:
I think that I may have unintentionally become a Unitarian, or at least adopted a Unitarianesqe outlook. Are there warning signs? A check list?
Concerned,

Sam,
Tending toward the church of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Thomas Jefferson is no reason to feel shame, but if you want to know, one warning sign is a tendency to read ahead, while singing from the hymnal, to see how you feel about the lyrics, doctrinally, which means that you don’t sing very well.
Oh, my God!
