Laurie has stated categorically that he does not believe in God. In an interview he granted to a news outlet, he stated: “I find pleasure a difficult thing; I don’t know what you do with it, I don’t know where to put it.”

“I don’t believe in God, but I have this idea that if there were a God, or destiny of some kind looking down on us, that if he saw you taking anything for granted, he’d take it away,” he emphatically concluded.
