I make decisions based on social or political philosophy aided by facts and probability. You make decisions based on religion or personal emotion stemmed from personal experience. Religions are a personal choice and bias that is flawed because their principles are written down and unchangeable, which makes them a self-created barrier that traps you for all time as the only constant in the world is change. Also, making decisions based on personal experience weakens your argument because your experience is no more important than any of the other 3 hundred million that exist in America.
