SECRET SCRIPTURE 7

After going off my book for a while the story has yet again managed to hook my attention back. In the story I have discovered how Tom McNulty and Roesanne the main character met and fell in love. The classic love story of them. Tom rescuing Roseanne from the water as she was struggling to stay afloat and then realising that she was the waitress at his beloved coffee shop......It came to the point were she was to meet his mother. Even though Roseanne is a polite, mature and beautiful woman she had a terrible encounter with her soon to be mother in law.  Roseanne entered Tom's mother's  small but cute bungalow that had  the overwhelming smell of boiling lamb she sat down on a old lumpy chair and the was introduced to Toms mother. At first she had a gentle look but her voice was not so gentle. She was a tiny lady and was dressed in black, her and her husband both being tailors. Then she started speaking and even with the lack of words that she pronounced all were unfriendly. Suddenly the point was made and was very clear because Mrs McNulty was a strong Christian and Roseanne was a Presbyterian (Protestant) and just because of Roseanne's religion Mrs McNulty would not be kind. This couple of pages really annoyed me because even if a woman is perfectly polite respects Jesus and even goes to church but is not 100 % Christian she is not accepted into a family.
