Isn't it amazing that people with completely incompatable cosmologies can interact together in everyday life.

Question

I imagine people are like houses. Theists start with a completely different foundation (technically) than atheists do. Even two theists can have drastically different foundations. Yet we still manage to build amazingly compatable "fronts" which allow us to buy groceries from eachother, etc...
I just find it interesting... are people with different foundations genuinely THAT different, and they simply adapt to society, or are people THAT similar that they can interact despite the opposing indoctrinations.

Christians, how many times have you professionally interacted with someone whom you think deserves eternal torture?

Answer 1

I don't really care what anyone believes. That includes other atheists. Each person is entitled to their own opinions. America. Land of the Free.

Answer 2

Yes, Thank 'God' the Church isn't killing everybody who has their own opinion anymore. The Dark Ages weren't that long ago, hopefully we never get a religion trying to take over the world to that extent again.

Answer 3

We are All Human Beans!
So What!
So There!

(it is what goes in the Minds that Counts when it comes to "Why Can't We All---Just Get Along!)

Answer 4

fundamental fact about human beings = EVERYONE on this planet is a totally unique individual, some may have similarities, many do not, but we're all different to a degree....

Answer 5

The first thing I thought of was:
Positive nad negatively charged ions go best together.

Answer 6

I think it all comes down to understanding and respecting such diversity. If you can manage that, you can get along with anyone.

Answer 7

Seems like that would cause some sort of massive explosion.

Answer 8

I don't ask my grocer what she believes, and she doesn't ask me. We like it that way.

Answer 9

Dammit, I thought this was going to be about horoscopes. Thanks for getting my hopes up.
