Religious Views
Barry is the son of a Presbyterian minister, and decided "early on" that he was an atheist. He said "the problem with writing about religion is that you run the risk of offending sincerely religious people, and then they come after you with machetes." In I'll Mature When I'm Dead, Barry describes himself as non-religious but describes attending synagogue with his Jewish wife.
