As Jenny says, religion is more than just an interest though, it has real impact on other people who want no part in it. Unlike the stupid crap I do.
But if you would tell Jenny that God is first cause of any-thing that is, and is where love is the continuity of life we are the very presence of God on earth, and we share that with the friends we love and this includes the cat.
So it is rather silly to see God in nature but not in us, and that is where religion most often becomes a hindrance to see.
And how did Francis of Assisi say that again? And I am not sure if he ever went to church, but surely was not protestant.
