But I understand that look, and it's not just "Pentecostals" who get that look. I know this.

I thought he mentioned Pentecostals giving that look....
You know, in the past few months, I have seen several local Pentecostal women at the store--and I have received little more than a blank stare when I smile or say "Hello." It's weird, because I have seen these women in church or conference settings, in which they are warm, friendly and engaging.
So I had a thought--is it possible that they are just socially inept? It just seems like there is such a problem knowing how to walk up to someone and strike up a conversation. I have a hard time believing these women are being deliberately rude. It just seems like they feel awkward or stilted or maybe even...frozen...LOL! Just wondering aloud....
Then again, maybe its because I'm a moderate and they don't want to talk to a heathen.
