I thought fellowship was a very religiously charged word and implied praying together - turns out I’m likely wrong about the prayer.
Can I just check that the normal well adjusted statesmen and women prayed for guidance, as in they couldn’t just think about the issue, weigh up the pros and cons, evaluate the long and short term consequences, but instead had to appeal to some mystical higher power …!? Wtf is wrong with people.
