Someone taking religion literally I think is a waste of time, but of course I have a clear atheistic bias in that regard. However, as a historic piece I don't see why not, because for so long was and still is religions played a part in the world - so as part of history, I think it's OK (not that you need my approval).

Besides, if people want to do things that I consider wasting their lives away that's their prerogative; as long as they're not infringing on my life.
