First on was sponsored by the Lions Club
Second one by the Catholic Church

Religion was seldom mentioned

Yeah, that's the best way. If on one side, no one makes a big deal out
of proclaiming that they're an agnostic or atheist, and on the other

works out okay. It's when someone feels the need to complain about
hypocrisy that things escalate out of control.
