I think religion belongs in society when society has failed. I think religion brings hope to those who need it, and in my opinion when the secular powers-that-be fail, religion is a good place to turn.

According to the Belief-O-Matic, I’m a Secular Humanist, not an Agnostic.

Thanks Todd!

None. Religion is a personal matter and can’t be used for social policies.

Very lively discussion. I enjoyed it. No Phanatics but also no fanatics — very open-minded exchange of views.
