Recently I've been working with a woman, my age 59, who was born and bred in a communist eastern European country and came to live here around 10 years' ago.
I was absolutely fascinated to discover that she has no connection/disconnection with any form of religion at all. I have to say that I meet many east Europeans but don't know many personally.
Obviously in her country there was no official religion, no religious education and her own family were secular, but she does remember a distant elderly relative having a bible.
Everyone I know, from all parts of the world, are either believers of some sort or, like me, have rejected religion. I'm just agog that this is the first person I've knowingly met who has no religious 'background'.
I'm not making any point here, just wanted to pass it on
