That made absolutely no sense.
Now to demonstrate why you are wrong I can do so even without using religion as an example.
1. Person A claims the correct location of the bar is on street X
2. Person B claims the correct location of the bar is on street Y
3. Person C claims the correct location of the bar is on street Z
Now what do you do with those competing claims? One of them may be right or none of them could be right. So if you have an independent source outside those three claims and something outside their control that would be universal, say a GPS locator, you could determine what the facts are.
Why is it in even the same religions not even the competing sects can agree on the correct interpretation of the same book?
Why is it you and I can type on a computer?
Maybe because science is universal and religion is man made and only a placebo based on wishful thinking.
Like I said, science works because as a method is doesn't deal with personal bias.
Religion only survives on marketing and relies on personal bias.
