'Should' is a personal moral question for each person to decide..

'It it wise?' depends on context. In Australia the question rarely comes up.When it does,my usual response is "I am not a believer" and decline to discuss the matter. If the person persists, things go down hill at a rapid clip.

My friends and family know and understand,and accept me as I am,as I do them. I really could not care less what some anonymous stranger thinks.--UNLESS there is some unacceptable personal disadvantage;EG harassment at work or a threat to my safety. THEN I will tell bald faced lies with no qualms..
