In my profile, I say this about my self and religion..
I wasn’t born with the blemish of original sin, I’m not guilty of a fabricated crime committed by a fictitious couple in an imaginary garden. I don’t need to have faith in your mythological god or adhere to your narrow minded religious beliefs. I live my life with dignity and freedom unshackled by the claims of faith, religion and superstition,
What would you say about your position on religion.

Religion was used to control me and I rejected being controlled by anyone-family, friend, lover or medical professional. No one or no belief system is going to set a value system for me. Only education and life experiences have contributed to how I think, believe and take action today.

That it’s ridiculous crap without merit.

I don't believe in talking snakes or any other kind of magical thing, that includes religion, gods, fairies, the Easter Bunny, Santa, ghosts, gnomes of the non ceramic variety, etc. I do believe that there are question as yet unanswered but, that time, science and mathematics will find those answers. I live my life by one simple rule "don't be an asshole".

I agree, although I wonder if your wholehearted confidence in science and mathematics is fully justified — every time science (or math) answers one question, several new ones seem to pop up. I see no reason to suppose that this will stop happening. But it is not a reason for science to stop seeking answers. I speak as a scientist (retired).
