Comment on Ask YC: Are you religous?

Comments

I'm not religious and religion makes me somewhat uncomfortable . This may be in part since religion is largely considered a private/personal matter in Canada (or at least Ontario :P).

I do believe in God and religion makes me somewhat uncomfortable as well! I find nearly all of it to be a bunch of superstitions that people would like to believe, both without evidence or logic.

I respect people of every faith, (and no faith) that have developed for themselves a systematic theology/cosmology that has some modicum of internal consistency. I have no time to talk to or debate those who can't be bothered and just go around believing "by faith" whatever they feel like.

Perhaps because people's beliefs are so diverse. In Toronto, there is about 8 groups of beliefs (if no affiliation is a group in itself) with over 100,000 members. That is in a city of ~2.5 million

I personally find that sort of mixing of cultures is fantastic for a city.
