I read many answers and I think they all missed a point or two, which I would like to highlight. This show has been one of my life's most important "happenings". It really changed my view towards the world. This is show is not about religion, or Christianity for that matter. This show is about life, ours as well as others, and what actually matters in it. One consistent teaching in the show has been the importance of friends and family, hope, belief, and a will to do good. I have started valuing my friends and family more than ever. I try not to do bad to anyone, and always believe that everything happens as a part of a great "design". I am not an atheist, nor I believe in a particular religion. I just believe in some greater force, which gives me a sense of hope and push to do the right thing. It is probably one of the most beautifully written and executed television projects ever, as much as I made my career choice because of this show. A must watch if you have started questioning life, and this world in general. Just beautiful 😃😃
