I don't consider myself a religious person. When the lecture began, I felt excluded more than anything else. I don't have a problem with people practising any kind of religion, but personally, I prefer to remain silent on the subject. As I've grown older, I've realised that I must need a journey of self discovery, or some sort. I need to find myself. I've just become so confused about who I am and what I believe - that any grain of faith seems too far to reach. Lately I've been thinking about faith a lot, and how much I actually have. As the days go by it seems to distance itself from me further and further, until it becomes but a speck in the distance. I've had many bad experiences and events in my life that I believe are the cause of my little faith left in anything. I think religion and faith is something a person must decide on individually and with their own determination and beliefs... not what they have been taught to believe. It's all about sincerity, and meaning at the end of the day. I think it is anyway. As I said, I'm unsure of anything related to the subject. I tend to steer clear on in depth discussion about religions.
Tom's view on the subject matches mine. Additonally, I think that a group of overtly religious people combined can lead to danger. Spirituality for the individual must be good, however.
