I do not think picking a religion is like buying a hat. . . it is more like buying a whole outfit.

An outfit including handcuffs.

Wait, no- it's still not that because this analogy sucks.

How does the analogy suck?
Choosing to have something because it looks nice and you like how it fits. That's what it is in both cases.

Because religion isn't always about choosing. You know that as well as anyone.

And we're not talking right now about all religion. We're talking about how Tam said it's a choice.

But it's not a choice, therefore she's wrong and her analogy to prove it is false.

In most cases it is a choice, not in all but in most, so her analogy does fit in most cases

Mneh, if it's not ultimately verifiable I think it fails.
