‎"I was brought up in a culture where no one is religious and where no one educated in particular is religious. It's completely, sort of exotic. So, of course for me it would seem that being a-religious which isn't really what atheism is like, people think you are against religion but it's just an indifference to religion. In most of Western Europe for many decades or maybe centuries now has been this sort of default mode. People are not terribly interested."
Pascal Boyer (anthropologist)
