“Do not make false equivalencies. Look at what I said. I did not say “with no religion.” I said “with no God.”

Look at what I said: “I’ve seen no evidence that belief in God has anything to do with it.”

And then look at what else you said. You went on as if to equate religion to belief in God (at least in the sense that I intend). The way you carried on spoke louder than what you claimed you said.

Or could I put it another way. Look at how people who go to church act. Some act as though it is to say hello and goodbye to God in the sanctuary. Others act as though it is to share the God they already know as a constant presence in their daily lives, with a group of people.

The first is a mere religion. The second is the kind of faith in God I mean, and yes that has a profound effect and there is copious evidence that it does.
