      Basically and esp. if one states this one faith is better than others.   
      Ie, "It's my church only, all others are doomed" type messages.    
      "My political party is the only way, the other side is full of fools",   
   etc.

     I grew up in the '50s and pretty much the same.   
     In the summer you left the house and just had to be home by dark/supper.

   -- it's raining!" & I'd get a ride straight home with no concern of hijinks or   
   "stranger danger"   
      
     From around 18 to my early 30s I hitch hiked a lot and never had a   
   problem.  Of course being 6'1" and anywhere from 165-210 (my weight varied a   
   lot   
   {pretty steady from 180-190 now}) may have been part of that.   
      And when I had a car I often picked up hitch hikers as well.  Provided   
   they looked decent (not standing along the road in bloody clothes holding an   
   axe).  Never had a problem picking anyone up.   
      One time several years ago I was putt-putting along the sidewalk on   
   campus in my golf cart and a young woman who worked in the office was returning   
   from lunch.  I rode up and asked "Hey there cutie, want a ride?  I have   
   candy?"  She asked without a pause "   
      I often joke I was told by my family to never accept rides from   
   strangers, UNLESS they offer you candy first.  :)

     One event comes to mind was with "The Rainbow Family" who were old   
   hippies and held a annual love-in and dope smoking convention in the state.  I   
   got   
   a ride from one of them and when the door opened for me smoke from all the   
   joints they had been smoking rol
