-as an additional point of interest, what are those beliefs doing for you, wherever they fall on that spectrum as you see it? As in, absent those two things being true, what part of your religion...would be endangered? Please note that I'm not asking about your superstitions. Things like a belief in biblical inerrancy and magic and the wondrous exploits of literary heroes. Your religion. How would your understanding of what is sacred and what is taboo, of how to live a good life and how things ought to be...be changed - if you did not believe in big boats, and the moral inscrutability of gods?
