Well as is evident from my name I don't actually believe in a god, so from that respect gods and God mean nothing to me. If I were the only person alive it would be as simple as that, end of discussion, but i'm not however so in the very least the concept of a god exists and is abundant around me in the people I know who are religious. So from that side of it I guess gods (and God in particular since the majority of religious people I know are christian) has at least some impact on my life. The traditions and practices, the buildings, school assemblies etc. To some extent it's a concept that I see myself as having to endure, but then it also brings a lot of happiness to people so I don't think it's too much trouble for me to live with it. The good things the concept brings out in people will hopefully outlast the bad, and after recently visiting Rome i've seen a lot of the good things (both Christian and otherwise).
