    I had a similar experience when I started my first job as a software developer and the owner / lead engineer, probably the most intelligent person I’ve ever met, told me about how is religious.

    I just couldn’t compute, particularly as I’d be radicalised against religion online.

    We have had many discussions and it become clear that he had thought more about his faith than I ever could and who was I to judge his position if he isn’t hurting people then he can believe what he likes.

    As you said, its a philosophical belief and not that he believes in a being per se, but that there is something deeper to the universe.
