I always find it amusing that people think that those who believe (in God, in some higher power, in something that requires some act of faith, etc.) must not be able to think freely.
Probably you didn't mean it that way, but I've certainly encountered my share of people who certainly do think that faith (see above) automatically makes you totally unable to form a coherent train of thought.
I'm happy to report that it's not true. I know a lot of people who can both think and believe in things, and also think about the things they believe.
