During my working life I had the pleasure of meeting and working with nuns,priests and vicars. In the main they were well grounded people who had God at the centre of their lives. They didn't ram it down your throat. They did not threaten you with their brethren if you did not, or could not see their point of view.
Yet in their own ways they did what they saw as God's work. They helped patients through difficult times not just with their religion, but with earthly practical help.

You can be spiritual/religious without being evangelical/fanatical about it.
Religious belief does not have be loud, it can be just as powerful spoken in a whisper.
