No more or less than you (or anyone else) as a Christian.  Which in turn leads
to the question:  Since none of them [religions] can be proved, why should any 
of them have a foothold in determining societal morality for everyone?

But no so ironic for others to do so, eh, Ken?  All religions are in the
same boat.

This is why Ken has never been embarrassed.  There's no one else like him.
