Too many people do exactly that. That’s the problem.

Imagination and fairytales are recognized as not being real. The same can’t be said for religion.

As long as they aren’t believing every small thing that happens is due to the actions of said sky wizard, I’m not seeing the incompatibility. Also, I’m agnostic, so if you’re trying to get a raise out of me don’t bother.

That’s what religion is.

No, that’s what some people think religion is. You’re describing a subset of Christianity, which is in itself a subset of religions. Just because it may apply to a large number of Americans doesn’t make it the norm everywhere.

You just said that’s not religion, then you told me it is religion. It can’t be both.
No wonder you’re agnostic.
