(urth) Damn filthy Hiero-wasp-creatures

	I've just started Pirate Freedom and have been having similar,  
though more confused thoughts about GW's 'real' religious thought.   
It's hard for me to square a number of items in his many books with  
his professed Catholicism.  Normally, I'd just say:  Well, the author  
is a fantasist and has a writing persona and then, separately,  
there's his real life feelings.  But GW seems to purposefully entwine  
the two and it makes me wonder at the value he places on belief.  Or  
am I just a dupe, falling for the seeming veritas of his writing?

	Any thoughts?  I'm a Spinozist myself and have no ax to grind in the  
dogma wars.
