I’ too have wondered about all those great minds, who down through the ages indulged the religion dejour of their time. A bit like trying to be President of the US without being a church going Christian I guess.

I used to be pretty comfortable with people of faith. I could see the structure and comfort it gave them. I assumed most were balancing their needs of the soul, with the realities of the modern world. The last decade or so has changed how I feel. A person who can suspend reality because it conflicts with their religious beliefs, is someone who is capable of lying to them self when it suits them to. Perhaps that is how we have evolved to deal with our existence in the past, but in this fast changing world, it is a dangerous and often immoral indulgence.
