If nobody perceives terms the same way then how do people know they're right?
The answer to that is we don't. But, if we don't know how we are right then do we know the direction we are going? Sometimes i have these weird thoughts, some of them are terrible trash thoughts that make zero sense until the next day and others are complicated thoughts that need more time.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
