I think it's a very important point. It's what Nietzsche meant when he said God was dead. He meant that people viewed religion the way that you do. Religion can no longer serve as a cultural focal point the way it did in medieval Europe or Baghdad.
Religion has become like Coke or Pepsi. It's an individual choice based on one's tastes.
