Stephen Fry, when asked about religion, would generally reply that he doesn't believe in God or gods, but he finds certain fondness of the Greek gods - or, "the capricious gods", as he refers to them. He sees their humanity as a good expression of the human nature that they truly possess through their creators.

It's a powerful idea, too: that we create gods.
