On this religion issue and some members on another group call Atheism a religion so I guess it is....but my dad could never come out and it was in the last 3 months of his life which I took care of him, was he able to say He Never Believed. I said "Dad, now you tell me, we could have had so much to talk about"...but he would have been crucified by everyone.
My mother was the power religion person and we followed her rules and the church. Dad never did but could never say WHY.
I finally got off the fence in my early 60's after the one woman play put on by Julia Sweeney "Letting Go Of God".... came out of that theater convinced where I needed and wanted to be.
Julia is on the Board of Directors now at Freedom From Religion Foundation in Madison, WI.
The only "stuff" that makes sense to me is Religious Science aka Science of Mind. I found it or it found me in the 80's and it WORKS in my life.
The Glass is Half Full principle.

I'm pretty sure he's fine, he's in a casket in a cemetary back East. Another waste of funds, no one goes to visit the graves. And you can believe in anything you want Nkat .. I believe in MY power most of all.
