There is a Bellingham group here. It's tiny of course, but fun that it's simply there!

My experience has been that you have to challenge them on salient points that cannot be denied by a child. Christ the King is certainly a huge problem there. Almost everyone that I know that has lost their mind goes to that church. Enjoy the quiet nature if not the rhetoric. I really my parents summer parties up there. Beer, fire, and late middle aged men whom have no idea what they are talking about. We the People... it's a Representative Democracy. You don't get to vote on individual issues.

We've swapped locations then. I'm in Mill Creek but grew up in Custer. Lived in Everson for just under a year. It's scary conservative up there right now. Young Earther Conservative. I have a cousin whom called NPR "too liberal". You aren't alone up there, people are just afraid to speak up for fear of banjos. :-)
