Drag doesn't believe in religion. Which is to say, drag thinks there's no such thing. It's not coherently defined. If religion is about belief in gods, what about Buddhism? If religion is about belief in the supernatural, then there are no religions, because everyone thinks their beliefs are part of the world, ie nature. If religion is about organised belief, then schools and universities are religion. That's not an attack on the beliefs schools teach; schools teach very important things like maths and spelling, and they organise belief on those subjects.

Religious studies were my major at university. I know far less about what religion is now than before I studied it… there's as much definitions of religion as there are scholars of religion.
