If this is true, and I use the word if advisedly, then it is a great shame.
However, we are not privy to TW personal life and innermost thoughts. Nor do we know what issues he may personally be wrestling with that have led him back to this particular security blanket. After all, none of us know why we are here and what, if any, the reason for things are and if TW needs religion at this point in his life to help him make sense of things then so be it.
I can only hope this is just one stage in his journey and he doesn't give up his innate ability to think for himself and revisit the original convictions that led him away from superstition in the first place.
