I was raised Catholic, so while that was a signif. influence, I've since lapsed from going to church, praying, etc. So, I don't know if I'm one to say anything but I guess in times like these, if it makes people feel better to talk about faith they have, I guess one might as well let them. Even if it is annoying.
However, some of the worst atrocities in history have been committed in the names of certain religions, so I'm not always as tolerant sometimes when people go sprouting off about Jesus or Allah or whomever. I mean, I don't tell them to kiss my ass or whatever, but I don't think there is any "right" religion, so I don't put much stock into what they say. I don't know if that's being lazy or ignorant or what, but it really annoys me when people use religion as an excuse to do certain things.
