I was never really raised religious. Sure, my family used to go to church every Sunday, I even sang in the choir. They were good people, and I still know them now. But on the religious side, I was never taught or brought up religious. My parents seemed to take a hands-off approach to parenting, which I have appreciated. This way, I pretty much developed on my own, getting into and out of trouble, and somehow turning out all right.
So, I have no troubles with religion, just a few of the people, but that is true for both sides of the fence. If everyone decided to listen to everyone else, then most of these arguments that appeared to be separated along religious lines would probably resolve themselves rather quickly.
