Faith is not about reality; it's about conformity.

Within each religious belief system, we see denominational groupings, distinctive refinements from other sub-sections of the belief system. A classic example might be a Catholic v a Southern Baptist. One believes that they use a man as mediator to speak to God, the other believes that they can speak to God directly. That man cannot forgive another man on behalf of God. Both would say their God is the right God? Right? But one of their Gods is the wrong God? Right? Or maybe both their Gods are the wrong God and the Muslim God is the right God? Right?

Or maybe, your God is your God based on geographical location, cultural and social fit, local community belief systems and the belief construct within which you were raised? Maybe everyone's God is the right God? Otherwise who gets to decide which of these exclusive clubs is THE ONE to join? What if you join and then find out in the small print that your God was the wrong God after all? How do you know that your God is not the wrong God? How do you know your God is RIGHT?
