Question of the week #41

[treonb]

The Church and Pastor Tim seem to serve as additional parental figures for Paige--parental figures that provide a more unambiguously black-and-white, worldview than her real parents can. We also know that Philip and Elizabeth will soon be asked to tell Paige the truth about their jobs and their lives in the U.S.

Do you think Paige might confide in her pastor if her parents try to bring her in?  What do you think she would tell him?

You can expect spoilers for the entire first two seasons in the comments.

(There's no expiration date on these questions, so if you're reading this post months later and feel like jumping in, please do.)

That is interesting -- I think her sense of right and wrong probably doesn't come from the church, as she's only been involved in it a few months and she presumably had one before. I should think she'd be instinctively horrified if she knew her parents went around shooting people etc, and that would have nothing to do with the church, but the church's teachings might give her support in disagreeing with her parents if they try to persuade her that their actions are justified. But they probably wouldn't tell her that much about specific crimes they've committed in the first place.
