Everyone keeps doing this modern, "you're allowed your beliefs, and I'm allowed mine"; which works great in terms of 'political correctness', yet in terms of understanding each other, it removes the option to reason it out logically.

If we exegete the religious texts, we are before the end of time, where everyone keeps saying it is optional.

Agreed we shouldn't argue about anything, as it limits trying to get anywhere with comprehension of each other properly; we should try to relate, not debate, and should show, not tell.
