In the Details

I would think all religious people on the planet readily agree on "the bigger picture".

That there is some Higher Power. That there are some things we may never understand. That there is such a thing as right and wrong, and that we all do eventually get our comeuppances.

Yet it's on the specifics that people butt heads.

Priest or Prophet or Redeemer? Is adoration the same as worship? Is there such a thing as infallibility? The list goes on and on, and at its worst can be the cause of much misunderstanding, if not animosity, between people of faith.

Ultimately, it's ironic. Is there any better proof than this that the devil is truly in the details?
