Are interactions with religions part of your daily live? (feddit.de)

Hey,

I'm curious to know what role religion plays in your day to day live as I am myself from the east of Germany which was called by the guardian the most godless place on earth a few years back and I only know very few religious people personally. My few run ins with religous folks have all been rather nice so far. Of course there's still influences of religion in Germany as a whole but not really in my day to day live and the whole topic of religion always leaves me kind of baffled when I try to understand it, especially since there are some weird concepts that I just don't understand logically but it seems to be rather important to a lot of people. On the flip side it seems that it's rather important to you to proclaim that you're non religious. Why's that?

I'm in one of the most secular countries in the world so it's really not common over here.

Sure, there are churches sprinkled around but actual religion is extremely rare to encounter. We still celebrate the same old religious holidays but they've basically lost basically all religious connections.

Overall I'd say I'd be surprised if anything to encounter someone who's actually religious.
