As far as religion being a "personal thing" i wish it was, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Every religion in the world actively tries to convert new members, and every religious person i've ever met has told me that religion is not just about their own personal beliefs about God, but that actually religion is about every aspect of their life, and that it is a guide for how human beings should live their lives. That makes religions political, not just personal. I can't name a religion that isn't political.
