Whether you are religious or not, contemplating your faith is a natural part of life, and it turns out that Billie Eilish has had quite the relationship with religion over the years.
And during a recent episode of the podcast she conducts with her dad, Patrick O'Connell - Me & Dad Radio - the singer said she's had a complicated relationship with religion.
While talking about Joan Osborne's song 'One Of Us', Eilish said that she liked the track because its depiction of faith is non-exclusionary.

She then opened up about her relationship with religion as a child and said: "I don't know if any of you know - I don't think I've ever talked about it. When I was little, when I was a little kid, I was super religious for no damn reason.
"My family never was religious. I didn't know anyone that was religious. And for some reason, as a little girl, I just was incredibly religious.
"And then that went on for years and at one point, I don't know what happened. It just completely went away."
She said that she has evolved to the point where she'd described herself as "anti-religious".
"And then it was weird. I had a couple of years of being almost anti-religious, for no reason also. And I don't know why that happened [and] I don't know what made me that way," she explained.
However, the 18-year-old said that she has now reached a peaceful, open-minded place when it comes to faith.
She said: "And then after that period of my life, I've loved the idea of other beliefs. And I think people with closed minds, people like me from a couple [of] years ago - I think that's very pathetic to have a closed mind. It's very lame. I love hearing people's beliefs.
"And I love talking about what people believe in and hearing why they believe in it and what makes them believe in it. And especially if I don't agree, because I like to listen and I like to understand. And I think it's really important to be supportive of all beliefs in the world and all opinions and not shoot people down for what they believe in."
Eilish's father said that her family weren't religious and didn't discuss faith "at all", but they thought that it was "marvelous" when Billie developed a belief and "didn't object to it".
Now, the 18-year-old said that she's at a place in life where she won't judge anyone for what they believe in.
She said: "I'm trying to tell you that it's OK to change your opinion and the fact that I used to be so anti-God, which doesn't make sense to me. Because now I love the idea. I think it's great to believe in stuff but if you want to stop, go ahead.
"You don’t have to believe in what you're taught to believe in."
