What is religion other than a particular way of seeing the world? All the stories are true and false at the same time. Don't search for historicity in religious works, but for an illumination that will inspire your life! All religions point to the realms of silence that we know nothing concrete about and they create comforting stories for us to believe in. We sense the mysteries that lie beyond us and therefore we describe them in terms that are appropriate to us. This fact points out the futility of arguing over the "rightness" of religion.
