I agree. I think what tends to be the problem with some people and religion is that people get caught up in trying to prove their religion right that they miss what the religion is really about. I doubt religion is really meant to hold the secrets to what the universe is as much as it's meant to hold the secrets to one's own enlightenment. That's why I lean towards the view of it's not what religion you practice that matters, but, rather, what's in your heart.

I think Gandhi had a good quote on the issue: ?I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.? That quote helps me keep things in perspective....and sorry if I went off on a tangent...it's 4am...
