Eh, I'm mostly torn these days. On one hand, as I also grew up (and for now currently reside in) the southeast, I've seen relgion bring out and be used to justify the absolute worst in people. On the other hand, I've seen it anchor people and bring g out some of the best. I've seen and met people, who by all means have the right to be depressed, bitter, angry, etc. but maintain an attitude of forgiveness and happiness I can barely begin to comprehend. I suppose on an individual level it can be very good, but I remain wary on religion as an institution.
