We went to church every Sunday and my parents even sang in a gospel quartet that sang on the radio and in a lot of other churches. But I was lucky that my parents were not self-righteous, judgmental, hypocrites. They had strong beliefs but they knew they could not force the entire country to pass laws based on their beliefs.

In the real world I do not attack religion. But here pretty much the only time religion come up is in the context of a political discussion. And in those situations I will always attack anyone who claims that the law should be based on their religious beliefs. So I can understand why so many people think that I am actively anti-religion. But I know that many religious people are charitable and loving. They just need to keep their religion to themselves instead of forcing it into our laws or the public domain.

Bullshit. In the context of talking about the Exodus story with 0 political statements made, you chimed in that anyone that believed in the Eden story was stupid. I believe you when you say that you act differently in the real world, but please spare us your crap that you're not really anti-religious.

Thanks.
