    Serious answer:

    I can’t speak for anyone else, but I believe in a religion because I’ve found it to be personally beneficial.

    I was a pastor for many years and saw much of the best and worst religion had to offer. I haven’t stepped foot inside a church since COVID broke out and don’t know that I ever will again.

    My personal beliefs are still a significant part of my life, but I understand why someone would ask the question that spawned this discussion.
