emacs -Q didn't work at all, so I went digging into my config file.

Here's what recursively loads .org files for me.  I don't remember when I
added this, but it's been a while...

In my emacs-init.org file, I have:


(add-hook 'org-agenda-mode-hook
    (lambda ()
        (setq org-agenda-files
            (find-lisp-find-files "~/org" "\.org$")
        )
    )
)



So no matter what I might type into the org-agenda-files in customize, this is
what really runs.   And it works fine too.  I think I got this code from Sacha
Chua, but I'm not certain.
