What do you say now?
What you've been told to say, or what you truly believe? Did you change your beliefs after you 'used' to say that, or did you not truly believe it in the first place?
Honestly not getting tetchy, I'm just curious as to what changed.

Well i don't live with her anymore so that's why i used to say it.
Myself i'm agnostic. I can't see how one religion can be right and all the others are wrong. I think there may be a God or a higher being. I'm just happy living my life and doing what i think is right and if it means theres a chance i'll go to hell for it. I'm happy with that.
I fully respect people who have faith and often talk about religion with them. So I don't think you're being tetchy.
p.s. can i be in your crew?

That's fair enough
I can see both sides of the coin as it were- I wasn't born Christian so coming to terms with my faith took a long while and a LOT of thinking!
It's nice to have a grown up conversation about it, I must say.
You can, if you can think of a good title for yourself.

I am surrounded by frigging pianos.
And they make horrible noises when they crash against the sides of the ship.
NO MORE. Smuggle me some DVDs or something.

^I pretty much agree with this
I'm a vague Christian, I am also a scientist. I'm perfectly happy to argue with morons on either side of the argument.
Personally, I think that the people who are violently anti-religion are probably scared that God does exist and the people who are violently anti- any sort of discussion about science explaining how God's Universe works are probably scared that He doesn't exist.

I think that makes a lot of sense
and seems as we're having this discussion, for my two bits I struggle to see or feel a divine presence in anything... and I also think religion gets used (by certain people) to stop people asking questions about things, which I don't think is a good thing.

True
I'm not a fan of big organised religions. People are unfoortunately subject to human nature so anything that can influence people will be used by the unscrupulous to advance themselves. Religion is just one of these things, as are money, land, food etc.
