I'm afraid this tension will always be with us....those who do not feel the need for a religion, especially some particular brand, will always object to perceived attempts to 'establish' it, while those who DO feel the need and believe they have found a 'truth' must find it almost painful to not share 'the good news' with others, especially when their religion is full of admontions to "become fishers of men" and the like.

It becomes almost irrelevant what "ultimate truth" might be, as long as there is no way to resolve it among those who either accept or reject specific formulations.

The ***ONLY*** (note emphasis..*grin*) way to deal with it is to allow belief and practice for those who choose, while protecting those who do NOT choose from insideous pressures to conform. What we mostly argue about is where to draw the line between allowing and protecting.
