    Well-written and a thesis I kinda agree with (i.e the title)...

Really? I actually feel like this is one of those pieces that I feel dumber for having read. Does it really take quitting a high paying job and spending a couple years around addicts to find out what all civilized people should know from the get go? Namely, that different people have different thoughts, feelings and beliefs about a whole range of topics, faith included (perhaps faith in particular). Are there not rich, educated men of strong faith? Are there not poor, destitute people who have no god?

I just like the way he writes, really. Not a meaningful article but--

Shared it on Facebook and got many more likes than usual...
