(11-25-2014 08:44 PM)Lincoln Wonk Wrote:  Asia Clarke told a great story about the Booth family and religion. She said a religious woman who lived nearby showed up at the Booth home one day wanting to convert the heathen Booth children. Mary Ann Booth was furious. She was an Episcopalian, and her children were raised in her faith as well as their father's various beliefs and they were sent to St. Timothy's to prepare for Confirmation.

This is the same story as what Terry related. The visitors were neighbors Elisha and Ann Browne, upstanding members of the Pillars of Light Methodist Church, who also tried to leave some missionary tracts with Mrs. Booth.

JWB later expressed his disdain for what he termed "Bible thumpers," referring to those who slammed their fists on the Bible or threw the Book itself down on the pulpit to prove their points.
