I go to Mass, but not a lot. I go to weekly Mass, but I do go to Mass. And my mother is still a very staunch Catholic, raised us all as Catholics. I believe in God. I believe in Catholicism, what it stands for. Yeah, I mean, we all do in my family. We're a big Catholic family. And, yeah, I take a lot of comfort from it, actually.
And I have a lot of debates with people like Richard Dawkins and these guys. And I'm like, you know, ultimately it comes down to this for me. The atheist can never explain to me what happened before nothing. And because the human brain cannot answer that question, because how can you, there has to be an acceptance. There is a higher being. There has to be.

Otherwise, you'd be able to answer that question. And they look at me completely enraged. But I'm like, no, you can't answer it, because you'd have to be a superior being to a human being to be able to comprehend that kind of question. So because we can't comprehend it, there has to be something bigger out there.

And I just think they love logic. And I'm like, well, okay, but religion actually carries with it a lot of other things other than just pure logic. But just on the logic alone, that's why I'm right and you're wrong, I think. He drives them nuts.

And then I think it comes down to other things, which is what do you want out of religion and out of God? I find it comforting to pray. I don't do it all the time. I don't pray every night. But there are times, difficult times in your life when you just want to say a prayer. And I've had prayers answered. And I've seen it happen. It might be a complete coincidence. Of course it might be.

But the power of having a faith that somebody out there has that ability to help you is pretty strong. And I think that people that have that really feel it. And if other people don't feel it and don't like it and don't want it, okay. But why do you obsess, as they all seem to do, about what we believe? Have your own non-belief and believe in that. You're fine. But shut up about it.

Why does it bother you? Nothing to do with you, whether I believe in God or not. If you don't, fine. If you think at the end of your life, that's it, you're worm food and nothing happens, fine. I will die a lot happier than you because I think there's a lot of good stuff waiting for me up there. And that makes me feel good.

You must, as you get nearer and nearer death, feel absolutely bloody terrible because you're thinking, that's it, forever. And you can't even say what forever is because you haven't got any faith. Yeah.
