I don't have a religious bone in my body.
I wonder if that is actually a very common condition. There is a book "God's Funeral", by AN Wilson, that discusses religion in 19C Victorian (should actually be called navvieist!) England and notes after "those dreadful hammers" "the perfectly ordinary agnostic housewife".
How does religion become a subject for very small eccentric groups and the rest of the world just get on with their lives?
When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.
