I had gone to a Scottish Heritage weekend, and purchased my Clan's insignia as a pin. One of the things I really love about being part Scots is (for the herald-correct) each woman can keep her own Clan's tartan, insignia, etc even after she's married. Technically, few other ethnic groups permit that.

So, I wore the pin to church the next Sunday, and after the service, my pastor said, "Wow! That's an interesting pin! What is it?"

I said, "It's my Clan insignia!" (with more pride than I should admit)

He looked at me, startled, and said, "You're in the Klan?!"

And that's the day that my pastor learned a lot about Scots history....
