@Oozenet I'll put it another way. My main issue lies with theistic religions. They require faith, and (esp in the Abrahamic traditions - see Abraham and Isaac) require *faith over reason*. In the US, where I grew up, many see blind faith (e.g. faith in a god) as a virtue. To my mind holding faith over reason is a deep character flaw. One of the reasons I moved to NZ where (based on the census trends) we became a majority irreligious nation a few years ago.
