I wonder sometimes, about people like me, who just don’t have the religious temperament, like Elizabeth Tudor and myself. That is, we just don’t have the temporal lobes to entertain the “religious experience”, though we intellectually kinda lean toward the probability of the existence of a Deity.
That is, the Lord God Almighty may well exist, whether or not you believe in Him, or you may well believe in Him, even though He doesn’t exist.

Like Liz, I find it helpful to go through the rituals anyway.

NB: It was an easy mistake, thinking that he was worshipping satan at the thorn pole… But when he realised that santa was just toying with him, he threatened to sleigh the jolly old fellow.

Heh,

There was also the case of the dyslexic devil-worshiper who sold his soul to santa…

Arguments about religious belief are mere semantic arguments: Just about everybody believes the sun will come up tomorrow (those who don’t can be ignored for our purposes).

So it gets down to depth of faith. The deeply religious can have very powerful survival tools that the ‘atheist’ cannot access. But then many atheists make atheism, for all practical purposes, a crackpot religion with most of religion’s faults and none of its virtues.

Was that good for you? It was good for me.

Or the agnostic, dyslexic, insomniac who stayed awake all night wondering if there really is a Dog.

Or the atheist crossed with a dyslexic who didn’t believe in Dog.
