I couldn't honestly go along with "Agree that Jesus committed sins" when I'm not sure that Jesus even existed.

Of the ten cities, nine of them have serious winters. The exception, San Francisco, is notoriously expensive. As I think about retirement, I want mild weather and low cost of living, among other things. If that means I end up in a community where I'm the odd man out in terms of religion, well, I'd probably accept that tradeoff. But it is an interesting list.
