You are of course entirely entitled to hold that religious opinion if
you like it.  The rest of the world, of course, is not obligated to
follow it, accept it, or pay any attention at all to it.  Particularly
sicne you have no reason at all whatsoever to presume that your opinion
on the matter is any more authoritative than any of the other differing
opinions on the matter.

Then I'm sorry for your lack of faith.  <shrug>
