    I don’t think most people would consider their religion a conflict of interest. I would agree that it is for scientific research, and probably a whole lot of other things…

        Back when I went to church, my viewpoint was that God created all the rules of nature and is pretty hands off after that. I also thought that dressing up for church was stupid. If god was real, he wouldn’t give a rats ass what people wore to church. And I thought all the rituals were quite silly. What’s the point of going to church when you check your mind out for an our. Were you really there? And that was before cell phones and ear buds. They don’t change anything but sure would have made it more tolerable.

        Yeah, I got over feeling like I was supposed to go church and be atheist.
