Speaking to people in ways they can understand is the first and most important part of playing well with others.
You have the right to call god by whatever name he gave you, or to simply express the feeling in your heart that this world we live in is so utterly magnificent and well ordered that it precipitates a feeling of awe, or to even not think about these things at all.
It is when people start believing that burning people at the stake, or stoning them, or shunning them, or bombing them is an act of some god that it becomes incomprehensible to me.
Reaching out with a helping hand, feeding the poor and caring for the sick, these are universal signs of good will all people understand when they are not blinded by hate and fear.
We are all in this together whether we like it or not. Remember how your mother used to say, "You will all learn to get along, or else!"
She was wiser than you might think.
