So one of the things that has always made religion so interesting is that people are so readily willing to split hairs. The Abrahamic faiths in particular have it down to an art form and understandably so, as in their eyes the consequences of one's faith and actions in life is dire, final, and eternal. That said, I couldn't help but laugh as I was reading through all of these comments and got about 3/4s of the way down when the user LBK said . . .

    Overthinking things doesn't get anyone anywhere.
