I agree with Dr. Pants. When someone asks about my religion, they typically don't care what I believe, they just want to know what angle to come at me from.

My father had someone come to the door and ask him "Have you found Jesus?" He said "I had no idea the guy was lost." They never came back.

Dr Pants, you're being too cynical. Or you've met too many Jehovah's Witnesses.

This also works for poetry and other creative writing. People love to share their own poetry, get it published, etc..., but they won't want to read yours.
