I think religion cheapens the "miracle" of life.
I agree completely. I think the idea of god ect, whatever people believe in, is actually kind of less awe-inspiring than the science of life and how things are created. Maybe it's because I can fully believe in this, but I don't know, I think most religions (at least) are less amazing than actual facts of life.

Plus she's hot

Or is that another Egyptian queen?
