So why religious studies?

For anyone who didn't already know, I have my B.A. in Religious Studies. I don't use it at all, really, but it was a kick ass subject in which to get a degree, let me tell you. When I'm asked "What made you pick Religious Studies?" I don't have an answer. There's not one single thing about Religion and Humanity that I can point to as the impetus for choosing that academic study.

But I do find this sort of thing absolutely fucking amazing.
