Can we speak about religion without killing each other?

November 30, 2011

Religion is a sensitive subject in these parts isn’t it Darkness?

I guess so Eva.

Why should that be so Darkness?

Because I don’t believe that religion is just about religion. If that were really the case. Then I don’t think we need a metal detector to even talk about this subject without blowing up. No Eva, religion is much more than that, a way of life? History? Identity? A method of making sense of our share destiny? A phanthom mirror that allows us to see ourselves in relation to the whole idea of community? No, Eva. I believe it must be much more than the mere idea, that its religion alone.
