Generally, I dislike the MSM, but this isn't such a bad question. It's not like the interviewer expected the Pastor to say: "Well, I can't, I give up on religion."
It gives the Pastor an opportunity to give a mini sermon. To help others try to come to grips with the situation.
Tempest in a teacup is my take.
You're just in a bad mood because it's Super Sunday and the Browns are nowhere ;-)
