He raises some good points. While I'm at this point in my life an agnostic I certainly remember Bible study that taught me about the good samaritan, doing unto others as you wish others to do unto you, and countless other parables that have shaped me into the person I am. Over time, I came to realize that these morals and ethics were not inherent to Catholics and indeed could be possessed by people with no avowed faith,and chose to live my life along those values while shedding the Church-going mindset. Perhaps the use of the word "religion" in this particular segment is what is causing the ruckus. Had he used the term "deeply rooted belief system", more people might be inclined to agree.
