Well, I'm glad to see there's diversity of opinion here for me soak up!
thanks everyone for giving your say.
More questions just keep poppin' into my head as I read this and as I'm trying to figure out where I stand for myself.
I'm wondering:
Is it even POSSIBLE to NOT have religious diversity?
Humans has created theocracies, dictatorships, monarchies, democracies, and many other forms of gov't - they all break up eventually, there may be short periods of anarchy here and there but we always seem to organize ourselves according to our own personal truths anyways. There's always rebels. There's always someone feeling, thinking, eating, breathing differently than the majority. We can suppress them - but eventually it comes out like a boil bursting. We keep changing our minds as we learn and change and live. We grow as a species, and as individuals, and we have the whole rest of our planet and galaxies and unfathomables influencing and changing us too.
I'm not even sure anymore if this is a question for me to decide, or a lesson about 'life' .
