""don-i appreciate your sharing of your past.""

It was a very important factor in my development, as it taught me that there is a world of difference between "Faith" and "Religion".

I incline toward belief in a Creator, while emphatically eschewing religious organisations.

I don't expect anybody else to follow my example, which is why it infuriates me when members of a religious organisation expect me to follow their path.

Proselytising callers at my front door receive very short shrift, and almost never return.
