Intro #3 - contrast essay

My husband, Paul and his brother, Ralph were raised in a devoutly Baptist family. The Christian family of mother, father and three sons went to church every Wednesday and twice on Sunday. The five of them went on many camping trips together. The boys played different sports, and their parents attended many games throughout the years. Their parents raised them with good family values. With an identical upbringing, one would expect Paul and Ralph to be alike, but this couldn't be further from the truth. Despite being raised in the same family, these two men are very different. From their teen years to their present family life, it's hard to believe that they were brought up together.
