[QUOTE="The Agrarian, post: 7539774, member: 3656"] I'll add to the mix that some of the most open minded, tolerant, progressive, science-aware people I know, also happen to have a religious and/or spiritual outlook. You just tend not to hear as much of them though, because they have a heightened understanding of the sensitivities involved in the vast range of human experiences, and that a spiritual journey through life is necessarily different for everyone. With respect to the religious group traditionally at the core of the DUP, the Free Presbyterian Church, it represents only about .6 or .7 of the NI population, but in the last ten years has had a disproportionately large influence on social policy, partly also due to the cross party mechanisms in the assembly and executive. Curious too that, not only is it a tiny minority of the total population, but also a very small minority of those who claim a religious faith or affiliation.
