Then why, I asked, is the world so fractured? Well, you can look at it this way. Would you want the world to all look alike? No. The genius of life is its variety. Even in our own faith, we have questions and answers, interpretations, debates. In Christianity, in Catholicism, in other faiths, the same thing-debates, interpretations. That is the beauty. It's like being a musician. If you found the note, and you kept hitting that note all the time, you would go nuts. It's the blending of the different notes that makes the music. The music of what? Of believing in something bigger than yourself.
The world presents a multitude of perspectives and beliefs, which contributes to its complexity and richness. Rather than striving for uniformity, we should appreciate the diversity that exists across different cultures and faiths. This variety is essential as it fosters questions, interpretations, and debates within religious communities, whether in Christianity or other belief systems.
Embracing this diversity resembles the art of music; a single repeated note can become monotonous, whereas the combination of various notes creates harmony. This harmonious blend is essential to the experience of believing in something greater than oneself, reminding us that life's beauty lies in its differences.
