Mom gave me some explanations of religions (a lot of "Some people believe that ___" explanations"), but I always thought of them as explanations people used in the past before they knew better. (It also took me years to realize that sexism and racism hadn't ended with the civil rights and feminist movements, which obviously were when people simply came to their senses.)
The social aspect is a huge advantage. I was a lot more aware of that, mostly because it's hard to miss living here.
How was your moral code influenced by religion? Just curious--were you worried about hell, or was it more just the advice they gave on ethics, or what?
