I'm essentially agnostic about the existence of a god. I would be disappointed if there was one because a god is a rather inelegant explanation for the mysteries left in this world. But who knows?

Also, I didn't say religions were entirely nonsense. Most of them gathered a decent amount of philosophical, moral and social virtues while they evolved through the ages. And although a lot of it tends to be quite outdated for these days, it is part of our heritage and therefore deserves some respect.

What I attacked in my OP is strictly one thing that all religions - apart from Buddhism, but Buddhism is not really a religion stricto sensu - require from their followers: unquestioning faith, a.k.a. gullibility. I am only dogmatic on one point. When you face something you don't understand, you should investigate, you should not blindly believe the first magic explanation that is put before you. And this is very relevant to poker too.
