Comment on is it weird to have your own religious beliefs system

Arguably, even the most devout of devout have their own unique mixture of beliefs, because the scripture is inconsistent and has parts that are unclear.

I’d say that literally everyone has a unique set of beliefs, even atheists will hold into some superstitions, often unaware they are.

I’m atheist, I still do “touch wood” (a pagan thing that got coopted by UK Protestantism, that to prevent a jinx or bring a blessing, you say “touch wood” and tap the nearest wooden thing), cause it does something in my brain, a comforting effect
