Usually,
when people say they’re not religious, they’re looking to pick a fight
or at least start an argument. That’s probably because people who
identify themselves as atheists or agnostics are often as dogmatic as
Cotton Mather and have merely made a religion of their own non-belief.
In
my case, however, religion simply plays no role in my life. Or perhaps
I should say institutionalized religion, seeing as how I very much
subscribe to the Judeo-Christian value system. It’s the reason that
I’m so grateful that two sets of Russian Jewish grandparents had the
guts to pack up their kids and caboodle, and move to America. [more]
