Churchill joins the Albion Lodge of Druids 1908

One thing that has always puzzled me is Churchill’s spiritual views. He was nominally baptised Church of England like most English people and also like most English people only seems to have set foot in a church for weddings and funerals.

He joined the Albion Lodge of the Ancient Order of Druids at his home Blenheim Palace in August 1908.

When in the army he decided to read the Bible, and borrowed one from a friend and after reading it for a week met his friend and told him “Isn’t this God of yours a total S*it!!”

He also once refered to religion as “a delicious narcotic”.

I’ve heard him called an athiest, an agnostic, a deists, a pagan, spiritualist and a having a personal relationship with god protestant. Any thoughts?
