So can I ask, this is a question, and I hate asking this question to people because I don't like to challenge people's religion. No, let's go. My biggest issue with religion is someone saying you have to, you only go through heaven through like believing in Jesus Christ.

To me, that creates division amongst people, right? Because what if I don't live in a place where they don't present Jesus Christ to me? Say I grew up in a Muslim place where there's like, there's no Jesus. You can only, for example, say you lived in the Gaza. RIGHT NOW, AND THERE'S A HOLY WAR, AND YOU WERE NEVER PRESENT TO JESUS.

YOU TELLING ME THAT THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE MUSLIM ARE GOING TO HELL, THAT WAS A QUESTION I ALWAYS HAD TO MY PASTOR, AND NO ONE COULD EVER GIVE ME AN ANSWER.

LIKE, SOMEONE WHO GREW UP BUDDHIST WHO NEVER WAS INTRODUCED TO JESUS, YOU TELLING ME THAT THAT PERSON IS GOING TO GO TO HELL, THAT JUST NEVER SAT RIGHT WITH ME, AND IT JUST FEELS LIKE RELIGION BECAME SO DIVISIVE FOR SO MANY PEOPLE BECAUSE THAT WAS THE WAY YOU CAN CONTROL MASSES THAT IT JUST SCARED ME.

Who's right and who's wrong? And the fact that you have to choose one to me is what's problematic with religion, not spirituality.

And when I would come across people ask questions, and me asking too many questions would get people upset. And they all at certain times felt like I was trying to tear down their religion. And I'm like, I'm not trying to tear down. I'm trying to understand. But the more questions I asked, people thought I was just being divisive or playing devil's advocate.
