The main theme across each of the 10 stories seemed to me to be about gaining civil rights through a legalized relationship of same sex partners. I want to take another tangent.
A few of the couples mentioned God. Dick and Bob have a Christian Diversity flag.
Being a linker and thinker, are we born with a true perception of God (includes none if there is none), but somehow this true belief is changed by the environment we are surrounded by.
In other words, do we have an inate religiosity?
innate
I would say no, we don't have an innate religiosity, as religion is merely a language. No one is really born a Christian, or any specific religion, as the specific set of rituals, beliefs and customs must be learned. What religion provides is a meaningful way to discuss one's perceptions of divinity with others as well as bring one greater understanding of one's faith.
That faith or spirituality is what might be inborn, meaning the sense that something is there (or isn't, depending) and that this something is somehow knowable. At the very least a desire to look. Faith is the looking while spirituality are the specific personal observations one finds.
I am curious if everyone were to spend enough time looking and observing to find "the truth", would there be a monotheistic world?
