I suppose it's hard not to look at both as concurrent systems of thought, since they have, in part, the same goal to explain life, the universe, and everything. I personally have no interest in questioning religion, because I don't find it has anything to do with me. I don't need it, and it doesn't need me. However, it is obvious that there is a very deep need for religion in many human beings, and that interests me, and scares me, given the shapes it has taken in the past and is taking now, in the world we live in.
I'm sorry for not replying to everyone, there are so many great contributions that I would like to reply to, it's hard to keep up
Thank you all for making this thread so lively, I hope it will continue this way
