"But how much better it would be if, instead of flabby agreement on — or disinterest in — previously divisive points of faith, we could understand in detail what we believe and why it differs from what others believe? That might bring us to the possibility of meaningful discoveries of surprising common ground or an agreement to live in peace despite our sometimes-profound differences." - Bill Tammeus

I suspect two insights might become apparent if people actually knew the details of their faith from an outsider's perspective, and reflected on the fact that so many versions of faith exist - not only around the world, but just among Christians: 1) faith is not a virtue and is in itself divisive; 2) the human race can achieve unity and "healing" the sooner we agree on a model of reality based on evidence rather than the active imaginations of theologians and the ancient authors of "sacred" texts.
