    You appear to have a great deal of faith in your own ability to read what’s happening in another’s mind and heart. Eg… you have no idea what elements of any particular religion a person considers relevant to their memberships.

      If people follow an organized religion I do assume they accept, or at least don’t outwardly reject, the tenants of that theology. So, it is functionally identical to me, if not to their own internal monologue.

      So, sure I’m assuming a complex, spectrum-based identity as a binary, uniform contract. However, this is probably just a defence mechanism from living amongst the crazy ones for too long.
