I don't see that as big a problem as you do.


Not a problem for me

Sorry, I will rephrase it. I don't see that as big a problem as you appear to think I should. Is that better?



But what you are is, for most people, an accident. That should inform what you tell your children, otherwise it simply isn't honest.

True enough, it is an accident. And also true enough that there has been a long history of antagonism between the religions some of which really about land and possessions and the right to rule, and some which is about much more abstract things. So the world is a messy place and lots of the people who get power at various times are pretty dubious characters. I don't think either of us find that in the least surprising.

Some of you could be right, or you could all be wrong, but you can't all be right.
Or we could all have an imperfect understanding of the same right thing, and that failure has let us fool ourselves into thinking 'we' are right and 'they' are wrong so let's try and solve it with aggression.
