Mark Zuckerberg goes from Atheist to Its Complicated



2016-12-26
T Thomas

Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook and reportedly the fifth richest person in the world, no longer wants to be identified as an ‘atheist’, he said on the social network he created.

“No,” he said, when asked if he was (still) an atheist. “I was raised Jewish and then I went through a period where I questioned things, but now I believe religion is very important.”

Perhaps in keeping with his newfound appreciation for religion, Zuckerberg, who used to list himself as ‘atheist’ on his Facebook profile, no longer does no.

The conversation happened in the context of Zuckerberg wishing everyone a “Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah”.
