Politics can’t be avoided as it has an absolute effect on how the people in power , attempt , or plan to run your life , usually against your will . Religion as far as ” who is right ” should be avoided . However , it is still relevant as it can be a valid tool for a person in adversity . Read a few POW stories , about how they mentally got through all the torture , and privations , and religion will pop up , many times . Don’t believe in anything ? move on to another thread that is more neutral for your tastes . Don’t like cigarettes ? then don’t smoke . Preaching works both ways . I agree , nobody needs to get butt hurt on this forum . Run your life the way you see fit , and leave it at that . I have my religious beliefs , do I go to church ? No . Its something very personal to me , and others are not invited . Warning well taken .
