14. It would be the same as it is now, I suspect.

I don't believe that there is a deity; Gods are a man-made construct, and the more your religion agrees with your prejudices, the more man-made it appears to be. I grew up in a very insulated and rigid space until about 13, and it didn't agree with me.

I don't always respect religion; I do respect the people who use religion to do the good they can in the space they can. Whatever gets you through the night is fine with me. However, when you insist that every person on the earth believes as you do, regardless of the science on a specific subject, I find it appalling!
