My view is this:
My heritage in terms of religion is Irish Catholic. The Irish were severly persecuted under the British but they still kept their faith to their religion. After hundreds of years of suffering the least I can do is have the same amount of faith in God as they did.
What would my ancestors say if they saw me scoffing at something that was more than just a religion to them? It would be heart wrenching to think that they held onto their faith in probably the toughest of times only to see that their descendants give up on God because there is no scientific proof.

There must be more to life that we just see it - so much more.
