Whether you believe in religion or not is not important. Everybody however has to understand the politics of religion in their lives.  Most people do not believe in religion anyway but they just play along because you have nothing to lose playing a long and a lot to lose being against religion.  There is really nothing to be gained by fighting religion or saying mean things against religion. Its a losing battle because religion is too big plus there is nothing to replace it with. The only people who can do without religion are the very rich people but even them they have to play along with the politics of religion. If you do not believe-just play along.

I think it's important.  Because people make life decisions based on the religious beliefs they hold or lack.   They raise their kids a certain way, again because of religious beliefs or lack of them.
