I would like to compare God and/or religion to a large mountain (only in this respect)
The man from the south sees a red stone with large caves in it.
The man from the north sees a round stone, yellowish.
At the east there is a woman who sees a green slope.
West a woman who sees a very steep and slippery rock.
If they meet each other and they are talking about their mountain, they will all say something different. Are they all wrong? Are they all right? How can they all be right if they say contracitory things?
I believe this is the same with religion. They are all agreeing about the major things (there is a God, there is a mountain) but differ in opinion what it looks like.
