<p>This has been addressed in many previous threads which you can search, but the short answer is: The religious aspect is what you want it to be. For some people, they choose to make it a big part and it is; for others, they see almost none of it. I know atheists, agnostics, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, Christians of all denominations, Catholics etc. that are not bothered one bit by the religious aspect because to be honest, it’s not a huge part of BC. Most of the Catholics aren’t even religious or practicing. Therefore, it should be of no concern whatsoever.</p>
